One of the design trends that I think will be around for a long time is decorating with typography!  Wall letters are a great way to personalize your wall decor and are fun to use when creating gallery walls.

There are a thousand and one DIY ideas out there using paper mache and wood letters that you can buy at the craft store.   A little paint, decorative paper or fabric can customize the look.

But if you’re looking for a something a little more special and unique, Etsy is the place to look.  While browsing the site recently I came across some shops that have taken the art of typography to a new level.

Slide1

1–I absolutely love the style of these wood letters from ViargoDemure.  The design is reminiscent of vintage metal signage letters but are crafted in wood.  The letters come in a variety of sizes and because they are unfinished, they can easily be customized to your liking.

2–What people are doing with pallets and reclaimed wood these days is just amazing.  SonOfWhale has crafted a collection of rustic yet refined letters that are perfect for bookcases, mantels or wall decor.  Because they use found materials, no two letters are alike which makes them truly special in my book.

3–If you’re looking for letters that really make an impact, check out JunkArtGypsyz.  They make a collection of metal letters that stand 24″ tall which would be fun for the top ledge of a cabinet or armoire.  And you’ll definitely want to check out their marquee letter and sign collection which is amazing.

4–RedCedarWoodcraft has taken a fresh approach to wall letters and makes these really fun letter wall shelves.  The letters are designed so that they can be hung on the wall and used to display books or accessories. These letters are great for decorating a child’s room and will work as the child grows and the decor changes.

5–When I had my store here in Atlanta, I use to buy from aluminum metal signs from GaugeNYC.  They have since expanded their product line to include all types of metal letter decor and jewelry.  Their free-standing metal letter are my favorite and can be used in so many ways.  I also love their numbers which I think are fabulous as table markers for a wedding or large dinner party.

Etsy never fails to deliver!  Stop by and check out these shops.

Paper Love: Creative Ways to UpStyle Your Envelope

I love paper products and one of my goals each year is to step away from the computer or cell phone and sends notes and cards to my friends the old fashion way.  The cards I send are always decorative but rarely do I do anything special to the envelope.

Typography influences are everywhere in the interior design world.  The impact is bold and graphic, while being whimsical and artistic. 

I love incorporating letters, numbers and quotes into my personal and professional design projects.
