Here's the thing we love about "family"- it's crazy and loud, fun and happy, messy and real, with good days and bad days. At least our families are that way! That's why in our own homes we surround ourselves with fun and encouraging messages to help us grow. We know we're not the only families who aren't perfect, so we created "This Thing Called Family" for all of the other real families out there: as encouraging reminders, good conversation starters and smile-makers! But real families are practical too, so we are excited to bring you products that are meaningful AND useful, like a chalkboard, wall hooks and a clock. Our new Mom Rules feature universal themes that will turn life's important rules into a fun and colorful way to decorate, while still getting your point across! We hope you will find something unique that will help your family stay close, keep track of life and have fun along the way! From our Things With Wings family to Yours, Connie, Jill and Laura This Thing Called Family is an innovative collection of versatile wall art that gives new meaning to the expression Words of Wisdom. Families will love to share their most meaningful sentiments with each other through the artful typography and scrapbook-inspired design of these folksy wall words and plaques.
