Warning Signs & Bold Home Décor: Make a Statement
Some rooms are too polite. Time to fix that.
Shop Warning SignsThere's a particular kind of person who looks at their walls and thinks "this is all a bit… sensible." If that's you — or if you're buying for someone like that — our warning signs and novelty crossing signs are the answer. Bold, funny, completely unexpected, and the first thing anyone notices when they walk in.
The Classic Road Sign Format — With a Twist
Our warning and crossing signs take the instantly recognisable yellow-and-black road sign format and apply it to subjects that have absolutely no business being on a road sign. Astronauts. Bears. The Beatles. The result is something that reads as official but immediately makes you look twice.
That double-take is the whole point. The best home decor makes people stop. These signs do that every single time.

Warning Signs as Gifts
These are some of the easiest gifts to give, because they require almost no context. You don't need to know the person's interior style, their colour preferences, or which wall they have available. A warning sign works anywhere and makes anyone laugh.
They're particularly strong as last-minute gifts — easy to order quickly, easy to wrap, and guaranteed to get a reaction. They're also brilliant gifts under £25 for exactly the reasons above. If you want more in the same vein, our round-up of funny gifts for him leans on exactly this kind of humour.
Beyond the Warning Sign: Bold Decor Throughout the Home
Once you've made a statement with a warning sign, build on it with equally characterful pieces. A retro sign in the kitchen. A door topper on the hallway. A city map print anchoring the living room. Each piece adds a layer of personality until your home looks exactly like the people who live there.
