The holidays have come and gone like a whirlwind, and now you have a huge mess of seasonal decorations to clean up. Out come the boxes, the broom, and the bills. You're left wondering, "What was all the cheer about?"

The last pine needle is finally swept up and the final string of lights is finally packed away, and then you remember one last holiday decoration. But there's no worry and stress when you go to store it away until the next year. You simply go to your car and remove your magnetic sign that wishes everyone who sees it a wonderful holiday season. You stick the magnetic sign in a drawer or box, and when you go to put it on your car next year, the process is just as easy.

Of course, you may not have a magnetic sign for your car that spreads holiday cheer, but when traveling this season I passed many cars wishing me all the best with their magnetic signs. My kids loved reading these magnetic signs, and their holiday message did put everyone in a more festive mood, especially on the way back home when all the holiday celebrations were literally in the rearview mirror.

In fact, they asked if we could ...
... get our own magnetic signs for our car for next year. And why not? If you think ordering a magnetic sign for your car is a costly and troublesome way to celebrate the season, then you might be a Scrooge, because magnetic signs are actually quite inexpensive and easy to order. And magnetic signs are much easier to apply to you car door than those reindeer antlers are to your windows!

I Want A Magnetic Sign That I Didn't See On Any Car

You have an idea for the type of magnetic sign you want for your car, but it is nothing like any you've seen before. Maybe you want your magnetic sign to send a particular message, but no sign yet exists that expresses what you want to say. No problem.

Many people custom order magnetic signs directly from a sign shop, and the process is easier than you might think. If you have a design and message in mind for your magnetic sign, all you have to do is submit it to the sign company, and in a matter of days you should have your custom magnetic sign. If you have a great idea for your magnetic sign but are unsure of how to design it, then you have the option of consulting a graphic designer within the sign shop - most quality sign companies employ an artistic team for just such situations.

Ordering a custom magnetic sign for your car, including the use of a graphic designer, all sounds costly and like a lot of work for something so small, right? Well, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus, and custom magnetic signs are actually quite affordable. The magnetic material is inexpensive, even if you choose a full color magnetic sign. And any image, including digital photographs, can be printed onto the material with the use of a digital printer, giving you the exact original magnetic sign you want. All you have to do is contact the sign shop with what you want.

Actually, the cost and process of ordering custom magnetic signs is so easy and affordable that magnetic signs may be a unique and fun gift for others next year. Don't keep your creative ideas all to yourself!

How Many Seasons Will My Magnetic Sign Last?

You've had several holiday decorations for years, some maybe even passed down from another generation or two. While your custom magnetic sign won't last long enough to be passed down to your great grandchildren, it will be there several years from now, even with consistent outdoor exposure. To care for your magnetic sign, just clean it with warm water and a mild soap, and use a soft cloth - not paper towels or anything else remotely abrasive. Magnetic signs are durable but are still vulnerable to surface scratching.

Speaking of scratching, magnetic signs will not harm your car in any way, as long as you request ScratchGuard material to be used on your magnetic sign. Most high quality sign shops produce magnetic signs sign ScratchGuard, a thin, protective film that is bonded with the magnetic material to protect your car from scratches and rust. So when you go to pack up your magnetic sign along with your other seasonal items, there is no trace of your magnetic sign on your car!
