************************
P.S. Somebody nominated me for Funniest Blog, if you agree, you can vote here. Please note: This is not for funniest-looking. Although I promise to wear a plastic crown if I win!






























I LOVE this! I was actually planning to try and make one of these for a friend of mine this Christmas, but now, I think I’ll just order from this shop (if I don’t win it here first!). I’d love one for myself, too…so I’d spell our last name, Diehl.
Thanks for the giveaway!
How cool is this artwork! I would love the “peace” letters.
Blessings,

Ummm, I think I would spell our last name…or my new baby’s first name. It’ so hard to choose!
what a GREAT giveaway
check out my blog to enter mine too
anyways..i would do “LOVE” for our master bedroom!
I think I might spell my own name (Natalie). I hope that’s not self-centered, but I just don’t have a child’s or husband’s last name to use yet!
I would probably do the word FAMILY those are just awesome!
Definitely our last name…these are awesome!
I’ve wanted a collage like this with my last name for a while, so I would spell out my name – Deines.
These are beautiful. I would love to gift my dad with the “Hope” one- he would definitely appreciate it.
Fantastic!
I love this. My friend has this up in her house and I planned on stealing the idea (Muhahah)
Now I can get help in furthering my diabolical plot.
I’d spell our last name. (I’m crazy like that…)
How interesting…I found “DAD” popping out at me without needing the “crib sheet” below the artwork. Now, if I were to win it, the big question is…do I give it to my own dad or allow my children to gift it to their dad?
HOME
as another one of mine graduates high school, I want to make sure they remember where HOME is!
I love this idea! I wish I’d thought of it first. Unfortunately, I’m not that creative! Oh, well. That’s one of the many reasons I come to this blog.
I would choose either our last name, new baby first name or the word Romantical for the master bedroom.
I’m attempting to be original (ha!!). I’d most likely want to spell my last name. But then again… maybe JOY or HOME or something “emotional” like that. I’d have a hard time making a final decision and probably end up with… MILLER.
love it…
I’d spell FAMILY or HOME.
My two favorite things.
Definitely the “JOY” frame. Lovely!
I love this! I think I would spell my son’s name, because it’s an odd spelling (and no, I won’t share, because I don’t want anyone stealing it!
) and my daughter has stuff that spells her (also odd) name.
I like JOY too. It’s something I try to strive for when I remember! (J-O-Y = Jesus Others Yourself)
Thanks!
Jen
I really like the LOVE prints, but my baby B needs his name in his room too! How could I pick?
I would probably get the word Family, and place it in my family room.
I would get either our last name….OR…my fave on there JOY!! I love it!!
I think I would like the word LIFE done this way. Interesting idea.
These are so cool. I’d definatley spell out our last name or maybe the word trust. Neat idea!
Oh I am totally in the midst of creating my own photo words as gifts for some of the people I love.
I would probably spell:
Scott (our last name),Hudson (my son)or Meadow (my daughter)
How fun! I think I’d have my letters spell “Create”.
Great shop! I think I would get one that said “SISTERS” – seeing as how we have 3 daughters and a huge photo collection, I think that would pull the photo wall together nicely!
I LOVE this-sooo creative!! Perfect gift for that person who has everything!! I’d get the word ‘Wynn’ our last name:) Thanks for an awesome give-a-way!!
i’d spell out dad.
I’m thinking… INSPIRE… DREAM… IMAGINE… something like that… maybe a gift or our last name? So many choices!
What a creative idea!
Love your blog, by the way… such a joy (chuckle, snort, laugh!) to read!
Very cool!!
I agree with the other comments very hard to pick a word. Maybe
Rejoice
Love
or our last name
I would spell out “Faith” something I am trying to have more of!
I wish it was easy…
I would probably spell “Laugh” because our family laughs a lot together. I have a few different things around the house (blocks, a pillow, etc) with that word painted or embroidered on them because sometimes laughter is what keeps us from going off the deep end. A kid has a ridiculous tantrum? Laugh, because the other option is crazy anger or frustration at their ridiculousness. Everything’s going wrong today? Laugh, and know that tomorrow’s a new chance. I’d spell laugh.
I would definitely like to spell our last name Stell. I’ve been looking for something to hange over the tv and I think this would look great.
Thanks for the giveaway. I’m off to vote for your blog!
Those are cool! I would go with FAMILY.
What a clever idea! I think I’d spell, “mudroom.” So many options, it’s hard to pick just one.
What a great shop! After perusing it, I would pick either “Family” or “Richmond” (our city).
These would make great Father’s Day gifts for my husband or my father. I would probably choose “dad” or “family”.
Welcome, family, VanderPloeg
hard to say…I’ll really have to give it some thought!!
H O M E . That’s what it’s all about, isn’t it?
I would spell our last name.
love this! what an awesome idea! I love the one that spells JOY. I think joy is one of the biggest foundations for enjoying life, and if not to enjoy it, then what else is there? If I had to decide on what I would do with the letters (if not choosing one that is already made) I would choose my son’s name, we don’t have anything with his name on it!
Those are ridiculously awesome! What a great giveaway!
I would either spell FAMILY or FAITH.
Thank you so much!
I would choose Faith.
This is such a neat idea!
I would go with GOD and probably family or my last name.
Great giveaway!
What great art pieces. If I were to have one done I would have it read FAMILY TREE and display it with our family photos in the hallway. My kids call it the family tree because we’ve got as far back as their great-great-great grandparents displayed (and our last name is Wood so it all goes together).
Gotta love Etsy!
This is a wonderful idea, and great giveaway.
I would chose WELCOME for our holiday cottage.
I sign all my correspondence (well, most of it anyway) with the closing word “Peace”. So that one seems fitting. Great store. Thanks for sharing it!
Love your blog!
Peace,
Sara
What a cool concept! I think it would be fun to see the word “Home” or “Love” or “Faith” spelled out.
I’d get the FAMILY letters. It would look amazing with the collection of family photos on my dining room wall.
this is so fun and creative! i think i would do “love” or maybe “home”. i’m inspired to try to find these shots on my own now!
I would pick Joy. What a clever Etsy shop!
Love it! I would pick our zip code for my husband’s office. It’s random but special to him.
What a fun idea! I think I would either spell our last name or the word FAMILY. or perhaps in the kids room (since all 3 are bunking together these days) I’d write: Friends… hmmmm the possibilities are endless!!
I think I would go with the DAD collage. My husband has some black and white photos in his office and this would work well together.
I’ve always thought these were SO, SO cool! What a great giveaway!
Suzanne
This would be perfect for my kitchen! “Hope” would probably be a good one for that wall :} That is what my family has always got when I’m cookin’.
Hugs!
I love this idea. It reminds me of a picture alphabet book that my children used to adore.
Cheers
I would definately use my last name!!! I love these. So unique.
Neat giveaway! I would pick our last name. Thanks:)

Love the black and white photos. I’d probably spell Hope or Love.
I would like to it to say JESUS, to remind me that He is in all the everyday things I see.
Well, as you know, “Welch” would work for us, too. But, I think I would pick “family.”
I adore the “love” one!
Thanks for the chance! jadensmail at gmail dot com
I love these! I would spell our last name, “WADE”.
I would choose SHALOM
I’d spell out Home since we will hopefully be moving into a new one soon.

I would spell out our last name, like you did for your family.
I would love to spell out my last name for our family photo wall! I am planning on getting one of these done for my sister in law this fall (she’s getting married!).
I think I’m tied between spelling our last name or Family, although, upon visiting I happened to fall in love with the hand knitted creamsicle scarf that’s also listed. I love that color.
I would choose our last name – I’ve always wanted something to proudly display my new(ish) name, but couldn’t figure out the right thing! THis would be perfect!!!
I think I would either choose “FAMILY” or “LOVE”. Decisions, decisions!
I’ve been checking your blog daily for a long time. But, I’m not sure that I’ve ever commented!
I enjoy reading, you’re a talented writer! I think I’d love the word HOPE! Such a cool idea!!

I would get our last name done! These are so neat! I’ve done something similar myself, actually!
What a great store. I would either get my name or a friends name done.
It’s a toss up.
I think that all that my family has been through lately we would pick “Faith” as that has been what has lifted us through all is our FAITH!
“WOLD” would be my pick. . . MKW
I would probably get FAMILY. AJ
I think I would get “LAUGH”.
I LOVE THIS !!!!! I would spell HOME because taht is where we all come back to when we need understanding! This is a really cool site- I even bookmarked it for future reference…THANKS!
Definitely “FAMILY” – I love these!
These are beautiful. I would spell “love” or maybe “home.” Or possibly my little guy’s name. So many options!
I would get ENJOY as a reminder to enjoy every day and every moment with my friends and family! It’s easy to get bogged down in our schedules and everything…I try to remember to just enjoy my life!!
~Lori
Oh, very cool! I think I would do FAMILY, but maybe BATHE (for the bathroom) or LEARN (for our school room).
FUN!
I would either get family or our last name. I absolutely love the love one and the peace one. How cool would it be to have one of these for each of the holidays and switch them out: love, thankful, merry, etc.
I would love to have our last name framed like that! Although, I haven’t gotten a father’s day gift yet and DAD looks really good…

I would spell our last name, Graybeal. LOVE IT!!!
I have a large space where I would love to spell out Faith, Hope Love. Or be all traditional and do our last name.

Ohhh- I love these. They’re so cool. I’d love to have my last name (Wilson) put on one.
I would do the same as the last one you posted. it may or may not be my family’s last name. I may or may not be acting to aloof becuase I don’t want to reveal such information on the internets =P
What a fabulous giveaway! I’d love to win!
How cool! I’ve seen these before and love the idea. There are so many words that would be fun to spell, Love, Pray, Family, our last name. The list goes on and on!
I’d love to have this to hang over my doorway…WELCOME!
FYI…we took photos of all the kids and grandkids holding letters in different creative ways and put them together on a posterboard for my Dad for his birthday, Spelling out Happy Birthday Pappy! (what our kids call Grandpa). We had just enough people to each have our own letter and then made his beloved dog the exclamation mark. Some examples are: My daughter hung upside down on the trapeeze with her letter, my son (who was being potty trained at the time) sat on the toilet with his letter (which just happened to be the letter P…my Dad loves that type of crazy humor) and another one held their letter up at the swimming pool while in the water (with goggles, none the less). It made a great “card” and he loved showing it off at work. Just thought you might like this idea and you might find a way to add your own crafty spin on it!
What a great idea! I love the collage of “peace.” Thanks for the giveaway!
~Heather
I love these! I would love to make something for my hubby for Father’s Day… maybe the special name my son has for him.
