Sudbury based shop Fourth Avenue Designs creates modern, rustic farmhouse-inspired decor which includes custom made signs, engravings and laser-cut wood creations. We love this personalized insert that can turn a fall wreath into a Halloween statement.

From the shop owner: Each piece of wood is hand selected, cut and painted by us! All signs are made with real wood, so your signs may have perfect imperfections such as knots, nicks, small cracks and holes. Since these signs are 100% handmade, no two signs will be the exact same as each piece of wood has it’s own character and takes to stains differently.

Delivery: Dispatch times vary depending on the piece (from 1 – 2 weeks), with FREE shipping in Canada on smaller items, signs are extra.

8. Pretty Up Your Pad with Pumpkins

Northern-Ontario based The Needle Queen RN has a cornucopia of cute and cozy pumpkins made to order. These are the perfect piece to take you from Halloween until the last leaves fall. Select your sizes, colours, and patterns, then top them with a spruce or birch twig!
