Words, words, words...which for my blank wall?



The best thing about my bathroom is the huge mirror over the sink and counter. The worst thing about my bathroom is the huge space above the huge mirror. Ever since last year when I finished my Pheasant Mural in the boys bathroom, I've had in mind that I'd like to put something above the mirror in this bathroom. 


But I'm not leaning towards any objects like the windmills or barns in the other bathroom, rather I'm thinking of putting up some words...some great quote. 

And where do I go to look for something without knowing what I want?
Why, Pinterest of course. 

And oh boy, I was filling up my board with WORDS that I just love. 
Some though just aren't appropriate for my bathroom wall.

Maybe not for a mural in my bathroom but I'd love this as a T-shirt!

I can go through a whole jar of peanut butter by myself. No joke. Hmmm, maybe I could find a place in my kitchen to put these words.

Isn't this one so true? But not for my bathroom. I don't want to encourage the men in my family to stay in there ANY LONGER than they already do!

I'm learning I really like Oscar Wilde quotes and need to read more of him.

.

Ah, Mark Twain...so American...and so true. 

Nothing...  
This sure makes me want to embrace every morning.

You just can't help but smile after reading this one.

I wouldn't put this Oscar Wilde quote on my wall but I really, really, Really, REALLY want it as a bracelet similar to the one in the photo. I need to do some research on that one. 

I still want to paint above my mirror but I'm getting overwhelmed with the wonderful words, words, WORDS I'm reading everywhere! What about you? Do you have any quotes on the walls in your home? Any suggestions? 

It may be awhile before I get this project finished but hopefully I can get it done before spring.

  1. We bought a vinyl quote when your brother was just getting out of the hospital--it says "When you can't see God's hand, trust his heart." We haven't put it up yet, but we should!

  4. I like pinning "words" too :o)

    A lot of those I like, but I think my favorite to see first thing in the morning would be the "...this life is pretty amazing" one. That would start my day off right, and end it right after a long exhausting day too!

    You block your dream when you allow fear to grow bigger than your faith -- Mary Manin Morrissey
