What Will Your Home Say?

One of my favorite home trends of the season is typography.  The hanging of words, phrases, numbers or letters in ones home.   To me words have power, even when they are just hanging on the wall.  I recently purchased a "LOVE" print and framed it for my living room.   Has it been hung yet?  No.   But I love my "LOVE" print.   




A few weeks ago I stumbled upon this super cute custom birth announcement, from trendypeas on etsy, which I quickly customized for a sweet little girl who came into the world last month, Miss Abigail.  Isn't it funny that the example picture has the same name??  I think this will make a lovely addition to her pink and green nursery.  




Here are a few more examples of typography that I think you might enjoy...




















Yes, I do love you blogs and coffee.  Maybe this will be my next purchase.  So what will your home say?

  1. I want to do typography in my main floor powder room. It's a space that just wants to be read! Any suggestions?

  2. Hey Cassie!

    This is a popular and useful phrase:

    "If you sprinkle when you tinkle, be a sweetie and wipe the seatie". Just kidding!! :)

    Well, I think it can be difficult to choose something for a powder room. I would peruse through etsy. They have a lot to choose from. The "keep calm and carry on" print would be cute. A big letter E is another option.

    It all depends on your style. Let me know what colors or style your powder room is and I can email you some links.

  3. Hey Sarah A!

    I too love typography and have found a number of ways to incorporate it in my home this season as well. This past year my mother sent a number of personalized gifts for the holidays. One of which was an 'L' crystal tree ornament for our daughter Lola. As it turns out I did not put up a tree this year, but I did find a permanent home for the 'L'. It dangles perfectly on the door handle of Lola's room. We also use the room for guests so I have tried to design the space with that in mind. It's the perfect touch and besides what 4 year old doesn't love a dash of bling to decorate their space!

    Love,
    Sarah A.
