Sometimes all it takes to complete a room is a bit of your personality, your humor. Nowadays the choices of typography prints are innumerable — you can find some that tickle the funny bone, some that offer solace, some that motivate. Add one to a wall grouping of photos, or simply hang one on its own. However you decide to display yours, one thing's for sure: Typography prints are here to stay. Here are 20 of my absolute favorites from around the web. — Danyelle from Dandee Designs

"No whining, frowning, (etc); only SMILES AND HUGS"???
Apparently at this person's house, members of the family aren't allowed to express emotion and grow.
That poster alone - being so high up in this list and being a parent of quadruplets myself - ruined the rest of the article for me.
Sorry.
