When you buy a sign from Chalk It Up Signs we include the design and layout. We use your chalkboard menu ideas and our expertise to make ideas come alive! Every sign we make has different look, size and feeel that matches exactly what you want. Seventeen years as the industry leader means a huge repertoire of design and layout experience.

Our chalkboard process removes the stress of designing a menu or sign from your shoulders and lets us enjoy what we do best – making great chalkboard menus and signs!

Follow these simple steps for your own chalkboard sign

Step One – Send us a workable file of your menu content (Word, Excel), any logo files (pdf) you would like for us to incorporate into your chalkboard and your design/theme/color scheme.   If you have an idea or have seen something you like, please share that with us in the beginning of the process so we understand your vision.

Step Two – We organize the text using Adobe Illustrator.  We do this on the computer to save time and to give you a clear image of composition.  We will email this to you for approval of text and layout.

Step Three – Once the text layout is approved, we overlay the illustrations in black and white.  This phase is meant to give you an idea of content and placement of the art.  It is not meant to be a work of art in and of itself.

Step Four – We spend the majority of our time in this phase of the chalkboard process because it’s the most fun.  After you approve the art work we permanently seal it so it will never smudge. We don’t seal areas that require you to make daily changes.
