Made in Nebraska. The Story Behind Cornbread Custom Signs

Made in Nebraska. The Story Behind Cornbread Custom Signs

There is something different about a sign that is made in Nebraska.

It carries the pride of a state that shows up, works hard, and builds things with purpose. That spirit is the heart of Cornbread Custom Signs.

We started small. A garage, a dream, and a belief that handcrafted artwork still matters in a world full of mass-produced decor. There was no roadmap or safety net. Just two people

showing up every day, carving out a future one sign at a time. Nebraska is built on that kind of grit, and our company was built the same way.

Cornbread Custom Signs grew because we refused to quit. When we had nothing but a few tools and a garage with dust on the floor, we still believed in what we were making. Every sign was created with pride and intention. Every customer mattered.

Nebraska supported us before anyone else did. Local customers believed in us long before we had licensing deals or magazine features. When we finally made the cover of Signs of the Times in our second year, it was not the recognition that pushed us forward. It was the reminder that we were on the right path. A path built on resistance, persistence, and the belief that our work could stand out in a crowded world.

Today, Cornbread Custom Signs is known for handcrafted wall art that blends tradition, pride, and storytelling. Every piece is made from engineered wood, carved with care, painted by hand, and finished right here in Nebraska. Nothing is outsourced. Nothing is rushed. Our signs travel across the country, but their roots never leave this state.

People choose our artwork because it feels personal. Whether it is a Huskers emblem, a firefighter shield, a military insignia, or a custom design for a home, every sign is built to last and built with meaning. We do not just make wall art. We create reminders of the things people care about, from team spirit to family legacy and everything in between.

Cornbread Custom Signs will always be a Nebraska company.
A place where pride lives in the details and where craftsmanship still matters.
A place that believes hard work will always speak louder than trends.
A place that proves you can start in a garage and build something real.




Made in Nebraska. Made with pride. Made for the people who want something meaningful on their wall.
