Wall sayings....will you share some really good ones please

14 years ago

We had a post on here once about wall sayings.

At that time I ran across one I just loved.

Now that my daughter has a machine to cut the letters out I want her to make it for me.......but......I can't remember what it was....I should have written it down...but I probably wouldn't be able to find it.

I don't know if it might have been one that one of you KTers shared or a link to some that someone shared.

Please share some...if I can't find the one (not even sure I'll recognise it....I'm a mess..lol)

Maybe I'll find another one I love.

My birthday is coming up and I'd like to have her cut it for me for my birthday.

My Oh My, Brass Band is really stunning with that many blooms! It was new for me last year, so I hope it will do well this summer. My best bloomers have been Brigadoons for the last several years. I am afraid the right one in the photo has crown gall, and they are grouped so closely. Gary Here is a link that might be useful: Brigadoon at HMF

Oh wow, NC - that's interesting! I had forgotten that "initial", yes I vaguely remember hearing that in some in some dim past. Angie, me too. We need a whole thread devoted to what we trashed and why. I wonder if I still have any photos of the termite mounds of shavings? Or the completely-eclipsed counter? Or the baggie-laden clothesline? Or the tile: that was *the* most hideous tile I have seen *anywhere*. period. We need a thread to find who had the most hideous former tile.... fwiw, the layout in my old kitchen was pretty OK-ish, permitting for 14 years of life in it. Some grumbling, but definitely live-in-able considering what so many in the world have to put up with. But I was always afraid one day those termites would chew up the last thread holding the uppers to the wall... Oh yeah, there was that hole that permitted the rat to run down from the attic; it wasn't great either. Once I closed a cabinet door on the poor thing's tail. I can still see it there, hanging down ... might even have a picture somewhere. shudder. I let him go eventually, slooping up his tail up and away; seemed the best of a string of really bad choices. Eventually we got on a first-name basis.

So funny about the frozen peas on the floor! I also know a dog who ate tomatoes off the vine, another dog who gets some canned string beans on her dinner every night and also loves raw carrots (and her name is Sadie) and I remember a former cooking forum member whose dog played with a big stalk of romaine lettuce til it was a goner and then ate it.

This is ours...The first pic is the recent incarnation of the saying. I wanted something a bit different so I stenciled it on some plates. The second pic is from when we first renovated the kitchen (about 10 years ago). It's when I first decided the saying was perfect for us.

Oh my! MrsMarv - what a beautiful kitchen you have!!! Such a beautiful view - love the wall words - and they were very clever on the plates too.

I saw a quote by Abraham Lincoln once on a sign in a shop. I wrote it down to save, and I'll be danged if I could find it. I did countless searches for old Abe's quotes, but could never find that one.

Hope you find yours Patti.

I have a Cricut and want to make some wall words too.

above our headboard it says "Always Kiss Me Goodnight"
In my living room "Home is a place you grow up wanting to leave, and grow old wanting to come back to" also..."Children are grandparents in training"...and "Grandmas and Grandpas are just antique little girls and boys.

One of my favorite Abraham Lincoln quotes is ~

"Folks with no vices have very few virtues"

We have that inscribed on a small soap dish in our guest bath.
