Hobby Lobby or any similar craft and hobby store. Or try a lumber yard or home improvement center. You can do a wood burning treatment, paint, whatever you wish! Sounds like a great project, perfect for gifts too.

If you want a rustic or natural look try a piece of old barn wood or drift wood. Glue what you want in place and give it a few coats of poly.

You could use stencils to paint on words or sayings. Eg, this is a porch welcome sign I made: http://momhomeguide.com/diy-fall-thanksgiving-welcome-sign/

I have many examples on my blog because I love making garden signs but I'll just share a few examples to keep it simple. Fence boards make a perfect sign base, new or reclaimed.
