The Good, the bad and the Ugly

Have your ever walked by a yard sign and completely overlooked it because you couldn’t read what it said? All of us have done it, and you think to yourself, “Why even have the sign up?” Color combinations are a large portion of what can make your yard signs, spinner signs, and banners valuable. Even though the rainbow is beautiful and has all the colors under the sun, one should not think that their sign should appear as a rainbow.  Below we have color combinations that will make your customers stop and read and others that will have them just walking on past.

Good:

  • Blue and yellow on white material
  • Red and blue ink together
  • One single ink color on white material
  • Good Primary Ink colors: Navy Blue, Blue, Forest Green, Green, Burn Orange, Orange, Red, Maroon, Purple, Brown, Black
  • Good Contrast Ink colors: light blue, teal, light green, yellow, pink, grey, white (only an ink color on yellow material. Doesn’t cost extra on white material)

Bad:

  • Pink on yellow material
  • Light green on yellow material
  • Purple on yellow material
  • Navy Blue on Black inks on any material
  • Purple on Black inks on any material
  • Forest green on black inks
  • Light blue as primary ink color (supposed to be a contrast color)
Great work. Job done in time.
