Multiple kids, one sign?

We can do one combined board or separate yard letters per kid. Most families do separate; the photograph is better.

Will it survive a Texas August?

Yes. We use heat-rated materials. The florals shift to dahlias and dried botanicals; the signage is finished wood.

How long does it hold?

Three days standard. Some families book a longer window for the first week of school photographs.

A front porch styled for back-to-school with a Back to School sign, pencil and ruler props, First Day board, balloons, florals, and lanterns.
