Buy yourself some sheets of copper, write your quotes on the sheet with a
hard metal object (nail punch? - place the copper on a sheet of cardboard so
that the pressure can go through... ), punch a hole through the corners and
use copper wire to tie it to a metal stake. All the things could be bought
at a hardware or crafts store. You can also cover a piece of wood with it
(bend the edges over the sides of the wood, tack it on with copper furniture
tacks). Nail a stake on it and hammer into the ground. It is really easy
and very satisfying.

copper... be careful as the metal can cut.

I'm looking for someone who would do a custom garden sign - metal that
would
stick in the ground with a quote on it. When I do a google search, I get
all
kinds of personalized address sign makers. Does anyone know of a resource
that
would make garden signs with a quote or poetry on it?
