Description
The birch hanging sign is a decorative sign that attaches to the underside of a block and displays text in a small wooden panel. It uses birch wood so it has a pale tone that fits modern and rustic builds alike. Hanging signs are perfect for shop fronts market stalls and indoor areas where a sign needs to hang from a beam or awning. Because the sign is suspended it fits places where a standing sign would be impractical such as above counters or along narrow streets. Players can edit the sign text to label shops rooms and areas which is useful for maps and role play servers. The birch hanging sign is easy to craft and replace so it is commonly used in markets and village centres to show prices directions or house names. It is a decorative block that adds detail and function while keeping the material palette consistent for builds that use birch wood. When placed under a block a hanging sign gives a clear readable label without taking walkable space which makes it a neat tool for busy town areas where space is at a premium.
