Obsession of the Moment | Letterfolk

letterfolk letterboard obsession

 

letterfolk letterboard obsession

We’ve established the fact that I’m a word nerd. Reading and writing and rambling are kind of my things. For as long as I can remember, words have excited me. So it’s really not that strange that when Letterfolk‘s modernized letterboards started popping up again and again (and again) in my Instagram feed, I was smitten. When I realized that the small company is run by Johnny and Joanna of Our Freaking Budget, I was straight up in love.

The idea of taking words and turning them into art that can be changed on a whim is something I love. I’ve done posts on word wall art and words on handmade pieces and even making a quick piece of DIY word art yourself. But for me, these letterboards are some other level shit. I can change it up depending on my mood (which, my husband will be happy to verify changes often). I can use it as a photo prop. I can lean it or hang it or let the girls practice spelling and writing on it. These things are awesome.

In case my gushing isn’t enough to convince you, I’ve grabbed some photos of Letterfolk letterboards from Instagram to show you different ways people have been using these guys.

Deck My Walls | Whimsical Wall Art

Deck My Walls | Old English Company ice cream print

The whole new year, clean slate, organizational rampage thing that happens to me in January inevitably leads to a burning desire to redecorate. Does anyone else go through this? Not only do I want to purge and go all KonMari method on my belongings, but I want to sort of revitalize everything too and breathe a little fresh air into whatever is feeling stagnant.

Right now, I’ve waged a war on our living room. The space has been more or less wasted for a while now and it makes me cringe a little. A little shuffling around here and there has pepped it up a bit, but now I’m looking to attack the walls.

Adorable Word Art for Your Walls

Minted word art: Smile

I received free product from Minted but was not required to write a post in return. All opinions, off-kilter styling and messy dressers are mine. 😉 This post contains affiliate links.

I’ve mentioned once or twice that I have a thing for word art. And a thing for gallery walls. And a thing for word art in a gallery wall. So obviously the next step was to create a gallery wall with nothing but word art, right?

I had already collected a couple of prints from The Crooked Nook and Petit Ink, so when Minted contacted me to see if I’d be interested in a couple of their pieces, I knew I had to jump into some more word art. And there are so many adorable choices!

DIY Frozen Wall Art: Let It Go

DIY Frozen wall art: Let It Go

So yesterday I was telling you all about my crafty girls night out. Today, I’m going to show you the (easy!) Frozen wall art I made from my painting.

Obviously, my painting was far from a masterpiece but the girls were super excited when they woke up the next morning and I told them I made it for them. Even more exciting was the fact that I told them I was going to turn it into a Let It Go painting. Cue squeal fest (we have a lot of those around here).

Momtrepreneur | 10th & Pepper

Momtrepreneur: 10th & Pepper though she be but little art print

I love a good story of a momma who finds a way to make things work. Camille from 10th and Pepper (a shop with original hand-lettered and illustrated wall art prints, greeting cards, note cards, and stationery for small businesses) emailed me a while back and I quickly learned that she is one of those women who makes things happen—which makes her perfect for my Momtrepreneur series.

I asked her a few questions to learn more about her story and I’m pretty sure you’ll find what she has to say inspiring…

about the momma

Hi! I'm Jen, a freelance writer and girl mom who loves reading the newest children’s books as much as I love a good psychological thriller. I believe fiercely in the power of kindness, empathy, and really good quality chocolate. When I'm not knee-deep in glittery crafts and girl talk, you can probably find me sprawled out on my couch in the middle of a Netflix marathon with dark chocolate smeared on my face. The struggle is real. Learn more about me here.
