Size Guide
The same words in three sizes, plus a person holding the sign, so you can see how big each size really looks in a room.
- Measure the wall or furniture behind the sign
- Pick a sign about 60–75% of that width
- Bigger letters read better from across the room
- Sizes from 30 to 60 inches wide, bigger by quote
What Makes LED Neon Different
LED neon isn't the hot, fragile glass neon of the past. See why our signs are lightweight, energy-saving and safe enough for a kid's room.
- Stays cool to the touch, safe around kids
- Safe for bedrooms, bathrooms and family spaces
- Lightweight and easy to handle
- Uses low energy and lasts for years
Single Color Options
One design, every color. Watch the same sign switch from white to red, yellow, green, teal, blue and purple so you can pick your favorite.
- Every color looks brighter in a dark room
- Single-color signs stay that color
- Mix colors to make one word stand out
- Red, turquoise, green, blue, purple, pink, white, orange, yellow, golden yellow and warm white
Warm vs Cool Tones
Some colors come in two shades. See cool white next to warm white, and golden yellow next to regular yellow, so you can pick the exact glow you want.
- Cool white: crisp, bright and modern
- Warm white: soft, cozy and inviting
- Golden yellow: rich and warm, like candlelight
- Regular yellow: bright and bold
RGB Color-Changing
Can't pick one color? An RGB sign changes colors with a remote. Watch one sign go from blue to green to pink to red with a tap.
- Change colors any time with the remote
- Pick a color to match your mood or event
- Dim it down or brighten it up
- Press MODE + or MODE – on the remote to switch lighting effects
Text & Font Styles
Fonts, line breaks and mixing styles. See how stacking words and pairing a script font with a block font change the whole feel of a sign.
- Script fonts feel soft and personal
- Block fonts are bold and easy to read
- More lines make a sign taller, not wider
- One accent color makes a key word stand out
Standard vs UV Printed
A standard sign has a clear board. A UV printed sign adds color and artwork right on the board behind the neon. See both, side by side.
- Clear board blends into your wall
- UV print adds color, patterns and logos behind the light
- The neon glows; the printed art is lit up by it
- Great for businesses, logos and photo backdrops
Clear vs Black Backing
Your neon sits on a backing board. See a clear backing next to a black backing up close, and how each one changes the look of your sign.
- Clear backing blends into any wall
- Clear gives a floating, light look
- Black backing makes colors pop
- Black looks bold on dark walls and in busy spaces
Cut to Shape vs Square
Cut to shape follows the outline of your words. Square sits on a clean rectangle board. Watch them side by side.
- Cut to shape: clean, floating look on the wall
- Square: bold, framed look that is easy to stand on a shelf
- Same price: both backing shapes are free
- Cut to shape is our standard
Split Signs & Setup
Big designs can come on two boards that hang next to each other and read as one sign. Watch how they connect and light up together.
- Big signs are easier to ship and hang
- Each board connects to the next with a plug
- Plug into a standard outlet and you're glowing
- Wall mount and hanging kits come free
