No, I'm not writing a book (although it would be neat to have a line or two of your favourite cut out like this).
These are wooden words, not printed ones and they are very popular. Here's why:
"Serenity" in Edwardian font
First of all you can have almost any word, name or phrase cut out of wood and either left unfinished (I recommend you finish it yourself with something to keep the wood from drying out too much) or stained and finished the colour of your choice.
"Christmas" in Century Schoolbook
Second, you can choose from a wide variety of font types. Pick a scripted font (like "Serenity" at the top) for a fancy handwritten look, or pick a printed font to sit on a line or be placed on a background. You decide which type of font best shows off what you want to have displayed.

Third, pick a size. The most common height people ask for is 3", but 4", 5" and 6" are available and larger (or smaller) sizes can be made available upon request).

Fourth, they look great. Whether you want to display the name(s) of someone special to you, or you're looking for some special touches for seasonal decor, or you simply want to showcase something that has meaning to you, these custom cut words add a unique touch to a room and make a great gift as well.
Pricing for Words
I don't typically post prices on the blog, but since this is a much inquired upon item, I'll post my pricing system here so you can calculate what your word/name/phrase would cost before contacting me. Please keep in mind that staining and finishing are extra and that the pricing below reflects only upon bare, unfinished words.
Base Cost and additionals:
Every font size has a base cost. That base cost is the price for any word up to and including 5 letters. There is a separate base cost for individual letters (such as "I" and "A"). Every letter beyond the first 5 has an additional per letter cost. I will list these below and then give a few examples.
Size Base Cost Additional Letters Single Letters
3" $10 $1 $5
4" $12 $1 $6
5" $14 $1.50 $7
6" $16 $1.50 $8
So if you wanted the name "Bob" in 3" letters, it would cost $10 since it is under the base cost maximum of 5 letters. The name "Jeremy" in 3" would be $11 since it is 1 letter over the base price ($10 base cost + $1 for an extra letter).
Easy enough right?
If you wanted "Mike & Cheryl" it would cost $26 ($10 for Mike, $11 for Cheryl and $5 for "&" since it's priced as an individual letter). Alternately "Mike and Cheryl" would cost $31 since "and" is now a separate word.
Certain pre-cut phrases, such as "Let it Snow" above are priced differently, but all other words, custom or pre-cut are priced the same.
I hope that helps to explain everything. Please contact me if there are questions or if you would like to place an order.
