The tide always changes

£29.95 inc. tax

A hand crafted Cornish driftwood sign with the caption “The tide always turns”, which can mean 'tomorrow is another day' or the turning of the tide means that something that was relatively constant has now changed. The phrase comes from when the sea tide changes from high tide to low tide or vice versa – this is called the turning of the tide or when the tide turns. The sign has been hand painted using waterproof ink markers and then coated with clear exterior varnish

The original lettering was hand drawn with a 2B pencil then scanned and re-traced and vectorised in Adobe Illustrator. The traced artwork is then superimposed on to the wood, using carbon transfer paper. The driftwood sign comes complete with brass eyelets and a white macramé rope tied at both ends with a fisherman’s knot so the sign can be hung from anywhere! These can be easily removed if required and fixed from the reverse side. The driftwood featured in this product was found on St. Ives beachat low tide between some moored fishing boats in South West Cornwall, up against the cliffs at Hendra following a storm. The wood itself has been bleached in a large bleaching tank for two days and then rinsed and then left to dry naturally before sanding down the rough edges. The sign is then painted with a pale blue wash with exterior matt emulsion and when dry two coats of exterior varnish are then applied should the sign be hung or displayed outdoors.
