BLOOM Botanical Farmhouse Country Cottage Vertical Porch Sign | Porch Leaner

Celebrate growth, renewal, and simple beauty with our BLOOM Porch Leaner. Designed with clean typography and soft botanical detailing, this piece brings an inviting farmhouse feel to front porches, covered patios, and entryways—perfect for spring, summer, and everyday styling.

Each sign is hand-cut from heavy 14-gauge American steel and designed entirely by me, The Dirt Road Gardener, in our family-owned fabrication shop in Kimball, Michigan. From design to cutting, every step is completed in-house with care, craftsmanship, and intention.

Rooted in faith, covered by grace — every piece that leaves our shop is made with that same heart.

This piece is a leaner-style sign, meant to be propped for easy, versatile styling rather than hung.

FINISH OPTIONS — PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

🌿 Rusted Patina Finish

Our rusted finish is intentionally aged using a natural activator that begins the patina process.
• Not sealed
• Rust will transfer when touched
• Patina will continue to evolve over weeks, months, and years
• Each piece will vary in tone, texture, and pattern

This finish is ideal for customers who love organic, time-worn character and understand that rust is living and ever-changing.

⸻

🌿 Raw Steel Finish
• Cleaned bare steel
• Not sealed
• Will naturally patina and darken over time
• Final appearance depends on humidity, handling, and placement

Raw steel offers a natural, industrial look that continues to age beautifully.

⸻

🌿 Flat Black Finish
• Smooth matte black appearance
• Sealed for durability
• Most consistent and low-maintenance finish option

A great choice for a clean, modern farmhouse aesthetic with minimal upkeep.

IMPORTANT NOTES
• This is a leaner-style sign.
It does not include hooks or holes and is designed to be propped against a wall, porch column, or post.
• No two pieces of steel are identical.
Steel arrives from the mill with natural grain, grooves, and variation. Rusted and raw finishes will differ from piece to piece, making each sign truly one of a kind.
• Color may vary slightly due to lighting, staging, and screen settings.
• This is a handmade steel item, not mass-produced décor—variation is part of its character and charm.
