interior inspiration : words & writing.













I know I have done collections similar to this one (signage, large letters, etc.), but I can't seem to ever get enough of lettering/type in interior design...

  3. I'm also a fan of incorporating words/letters into a room - I really like the vintage signs, and I like the idea of old subway signs too.

    I'm always turning to your blog for great ideas and beautiful images - keep up the good work!

  4. I pretty much love every single one of these interiors. Especially "I love you so much" with the metallic file folder and twin owls resting on top. Also really love the "You have my heart" above the bed - really sweet to have that in your bedroom as a couple. These are great finds and really inspiring. Thanks for putting these together!

  5. Great collection. I am a sucker for text in interiors as well. Even single letters and punctuation makes me happy. Thanks for sharing. Yes, it's lovely. :)

  10. Beautiful pictures! I've always thought about doing something with writing on a wall, especially in the bathroom. Like lines from poems and favorite novels.

  11. I love all the words..especially over the bed. I have been trying to think of something to make for over our bed. I think that might be it!

    Very cool.
