Customizing messages using character patches, by attaching a set of character patches to a substrate, using hook and loop fasteners. An assortment of character patches is selected and provided by a supplier. The user selects which ones, but not all, of the assortment to use, as a set, and arranges the set in a desired order to create a user-determined message. The selected character patches are mounted to one or more receptive patches on the substrate, in the arranged order, displaying the user-determined message. A sheet of the assortment of character patches, die-cut in a character patch layer, can be supplied mounted on a backing layer. As the user selects and removes character patches, the remaining character patches remain all together, mounted on the backing layer. The characters include at least one of numbers, letters, or other readily-recognized non-artistic characters, and can include characters which contain only artistic expressions.

A three-dimensional attachment. The three-dimensional attachment includes at least one character having a height (h), a width (w) and a depth (d). The at least one character further includes a front surface and a rear surface. The depth (d) extends from the front surface to the rear surface. The depth (d) of the at least one character varies such that the rear surface has a curve contouring to an outer surface of a curved object, and the front surface has a planar design. The three-dimensional attachment thereby attaches to a curved object and the design appears to be three-dimensional relative to the curved object.

Provided is a light emitting device 1 for design, the device capable of achieving a light emission surface 3 having esthetic effects without being influenced by a fixation structure between a light design part 4 and a housing 6. The light emitting device 1 for design includes: a light design part 4 having a light emission surface 3 either in a shape representing one of a character, a figure, and a pattern, or in a shape inverted therefrom, and the light design part being configured either to transmit or to diffuse light; a light source 9 configured to apply light to the light design part 4 from a back side of the light emission surface; and a housing 6 having an opening 6c following the shape of the light design part 4, and supporting the light design part 4 and the light source 9, wherein a support plate 5 that is either transparent or translucent is provided, the support plate 5 having one end bonded to either an edge or a portion near the edge of the light design part 4, and another portion fixed to the housing.

A crime scene evidence marker includes a base with a central portion and a plurality of coplanar legs extending in spaced relation from the central portion. A projection is connected to the central portion of the base. A post is removably connected with the projection. The post extends vertically and has an opening in a lower end which is configured to complement the configuration of the projection. The post lower end receives the projection in a mating configuration to removably connect the post with the base. The legs and post have measuring indicia placed thereon.

A foldable bag sign holder allowing for a low profile is disclosed having a center portion with ends bendable to meet the center portion or extend past the center portion in a configuration useful for shipping and storage and in another configuration having the ends transverse away from the center portion so that the ends of the legs may be placed in the ground and a bag sign may be engaged with and slid over the center portion, angled portions and legs during deployment of the foldable sign holder. The bag sign and foldable sign holder may be sold together as a kit.
