I really like the idea of using lettering in unconventional ways, and recently as I was strolling through our neighborhood home store, I grabbed a bunch of paint chips. I proceeded to turn them into technicolor love notes for my husband, but I can't help but think that these would be adorable place cards as well… spelling out each person's name. Or you could even use them as table cards, with different words spelled out differentiating the tables. It would certainly be a different approach!
I'm always so charmed when I walk into a wedding and am blown away by sweet little details that I haven't seen anywhere before. You could even spell out “thanks” and enclose them in your thank you cards for an unexpected touch. So many possibilities! I love it when I discover a way to turn an everyday object into a thing of beauty. It gives me such joy! How about you?

About Me: Ever since I was a little girl, my passion has been creating beauty; doing exactly that for a career is a perfect fit! When I’m not working, I enjoy hanging out with my husband, traveling, gardening, cooking up a storm, reading voraciously, watching old movies, listening to music/going to concerts, learning the bass guitar, quilting, and basically doing anything that involves creating something with my hands.
What a fantastic idea! With everything being so expensive these days, it’s great to hear of fun (and free!) ways to jazz up every day correspondence!
