New Obsession: Etsy Word Art

It all started when I bought this on Etsy...

via
And I loved how it looked in our living room. I soon realized that Etsy was filled with amazing letterpress and word art.

So next I picked up this for my home office...

via
And my obsession was born!

I'm now contemplating buying this as wedding gift...

via

Speaking of scripture word art, I love how beautiful and modern this is...

via
Don't you love that verse written out that way?

I would be so happy to someday hang this in my child's nursery...

via
My parents used to sing that to me and I think it's just the most adorable song. I'd love to design a a modern, whimsical, sunny nursery around this art someday.

And this is pretty awesome for a nursery too...

via

I love this as a shower gift if you know the baby's name...

via

OK, enough baby stuff. Here's just another fun one that I liked a lot...

via
If I had an office at work (instead of being on the road), I'd hang it there.


Those are just some of my favorites that are out there. The possibilities are limitless!

So what phrase, motto, or verse would you like to have on the walls of your home?

I love word art! But I have absolutely no idea what words I would hang on my walls. I would need to search Etsy for some inspiration :)

I love those. I love the "I have asked for this child." one. Bright fun colors too.

Last year I fell in love with Elanore Roosevelt's "do something everyday that scares you."

I love them! The Keep Calm poster is my fav...I've been wanting one for so long, butI can't decide on a color!

Alison said...

Those are great! I just discovered all of the adorable hand-stamped pendants on Etsy...one of my girlfriends gave me one when my daughter was born, and I LOVE it. Thanks for sharing!

I really enjoy word art as well! I have a small pink Keep Calm framed print on my desk at work and it is a great reminder to literally keep calm when things are hectic. I get compliments on it all the time! :)

Dee Stephens said...

I like the word art too but don't have one single piece in my house. Not sure why?

I'm obsessed with word art, my husband says no more words lol! I have the Keep Calm Carry On one in a darker turquoise, and a few cute ones. We have one above our bed that says Always Kiss Me Goodnight, that's my favourite!

I've been wanting a Keep Calm print for a while, but can't decide on one. And I love that "For this child I prayed" print. I may seriously need to order that.

Allyce said...

Thanks so much for sharing. I literally, hopped over and bought the 1 Corinthians piece in green for our living room! It will fit perfectly and I am so excited!

I'm getting our wedding vows done on a wood hanging for our first anniversary through barnowlprimitives on etsy. I had her make a sign for my mother in law for xmas and she looooved it! So fun!

labride said...

Okay, I am now obsessed too! I love love love these, especially the Corinthians one.

Jessica said...

Love this! That's funny because just yesterday I bought my friend a cute paperweight for her desk with that "Keep Calm and Carry On" saying on it! Its such a good one to be reminded of. I have a journal that has a version of that saying on it that says "Keep Calm and Have a Cupcake" which is my personal mantra. :-)

Jessica @ Wanting Adventure said...

I love that art! The Bible verses spelled out are my favorite - I love that as a baby gift!

Love the "Keep Calm" posters! After we move into our house and are settled I'd love to get the "Keep calm and surf on" poster! Love it!

LOVED all of those! Actually, I have the first one in my home office that says: Keep calm and go shopping! I love it. Etsy is a great place to find prints like that. I'm new to your website,I'll be coming back soon!
