Proven 20 years in the ground
Each stamp is a thick, rigid plastic plate with your words carved into its face — press it into wet concrete and the words stay. Our field record: stamps we cut 20 years ago are still in use in the field, and 20-year-old stamped concrete is still going strong.

Where this comes from
Born on a sign shop floor.
If you've walked Saint Paul, you've walked over our work. Our Twin Cities sign shop — Dimension Sign — has cut stamps for the city's Sidewalk Poetry program since its early years. The program itself belongs to Public Art Saint Paul and the City of Saint Paul, and it has put a poem within a ten-minute walk of every resident.
The same shop has machined stamps for poetry and public-art programs in 17 states, coast to coast. Stamped Sidewalks is that craft with its own front door: you design your stamp online, and the same machines cut it here in Minnesota.

Why words in concrete
Sidewalk poetry turns routine concrete maintenance into a canvas for community voices — a poem pressed into every fresh pour.
How programs run
Cities collect poems from residents, then press the selected entries into sidewalk panels already scheduled for repair — public art on the maintenance budget.
Our proof-first promise
Review the final outline, dimensions and wording before payment. Your approved revision stays with the order and guides what we cut.
Who it's for
Made for the way you'll use it.
Municipal programs
Run a sidewalk poetry program with the shop that has supplied programs in 17 states — grant-ready quotes and spec sheets included.
Homeowners
A family name, a date, a line of verse — pressed into your own driveway, patio, or garden path.
Memorials
A permanent remembrance in a garden path or memorial walk — you approve the exact impression before it's cut.
Contractors
Offer inscriptions your competitors can't — with stamps that have held up through 20 years of repeat pours.
Questions
Quick answers.
- How long do concrete stamps last?
- We let the field record answer: stamps we cut 20 years ago are still in use in the field, and 20-year-old stamped concrete is still going strong. Each stamp is a thick, rigid plastic plate made for repeated use — trusted by municipal public works departments across the country.
- Can I use the design tool for free?
- Yes! Our 3D design tool is completely free to use. Design as many stamps as you want, preview them in realistic 3D, and only pay when you're ready to order. A free account adds a workspace on top: save designs and revisions, organize them into projects, share live proofs with family or a review committee, and download spec sheets for your contractor.
- How fast do you ship?
- Production takes at least 10 business days, then your stamp ships anywhere in the US or Canada — standard shipping adds 5–7 business days, with express and overnight options at checkout.
- How much does a custom concrete stamp cost?
- Pricing is set by stamp size — most stamps land between $100 and $350. A one-line address marker prices at $100, and a full six-to-eight-line stanza at $259.20. You see your exact price instantly as you design, before creating an account or paying anything. Prices don't include shipping, which is priced by your order's size and weight at checkout.
- How do I see pricing?
- Use our free design tool to see pricing in real-time as you create your stamp. The price updates instantly as you adjust text, fonts, and dimensions.
- Are you the shop behind Saint Paul's Sidewalk Poetry program?
- We make its stamps. The program itself — Everyday Poems for City Sidewalk — is created and run by Public Art Saint Paul in cooperation with the City of Saint Paul's Public Works department, which launched it in 2008; Public Art Saint Paul reports 1,400+ stamps installed citywide from a collection of 102 resident-written poems. The craft comes from Dimension Sign (formerly Fourth Dimension Signs), the Twin Cities sign shop that has machined stamps for the program since its early years and supplied city poetry and public-art programs in 17 states.
