a special sorry package

Very recently my honey bunny and I spent the night at one of his besties house for the night. We had to use his truck for an errand whilst we were there. Once we got home (about a 2 hour drive) low and behold, we realized we had the bestie's truck keys, whoops!! So we packaged them up quick in a priority mailing envelope and seeing as how it was a flat rate envelope we decided to make him a super special sorry package! One of the first things we made for it was a buch of jalapeno peppers with little labels on them that said SORRY!. We thought we were just so clever and so funny and we just knew we were going to get the best reaction. We did not. Look at our SORRY! peppers....aren't they just the cutest sorry things you've seen?!?!?

a thing for letters

I saw this thingy as 'bumper sticker' on my sister-in-law's facebook and just fell for it. I love letters, love the alphabet and still like reciting all of those little ditties we learned in grade school to remember English grammar. 

This is so cute, wouldn't it be fantastic LARGE, framed and on the wall??!?

letter(s)

I wonder how much we take them for granted? They are such a huge part of our lives. I started thinking about them yesterday as I was watching the Inauguration coverage on tv. They were showing crowds from FDR's Inauguration day and as I was reading the signs that people were holding up I noticed the text, the fonts...how they are some of the same ones that are widely used today. 

We are clearly surrounded by text in our modern lives, in every room, on every package, around every corner...pretty much every where we look we find words; letters.

So in ode to letters and how very special they are:

I find that showcasing a single letter in your home decor is fun & decadent even! Putting together letters to spell out something can be rather charming as well. Letters to display & decorate with are fairly easy to find. Of course, I am partial to vintage ones. I found lots on etsy. For example:



This delicious green A can be found on etsy in ModishVintage's shop.

These lovely letters PPL can also be found on etsy in jbellantoni's shop!
