So I know we are trying to get rid of stuff, but in my quest to decorate and make my home comfortable and mine, I really wanted some sort of country primitive sign to put over my sink - there is a place that just demands something - (see the spot over the sink here?), but I wanted one that said something different, maybe something related to simplicity, etc.

Well, I found the perfect one on ebay! It is just the right size, the perfect shade of brick red to match my kitchen and says "Love Grows Best in Little Houses" ! Isn't that perfect? I love how it will subtly make a statement that we are HAPPY with our smaller house.

Anyway, I just so wanted to share!

Picture here

Thanks!

How cool!! That'll look great. I've been finding that as I purge and organize I can kind of justify spending a little $$ every now and then on something for my house that I REALLY love. I don't think there's anything wrong with that!!

I think it makes such a difference to look at a space, know you want something to go there and then find the perfect thing, knowing it has a place, rather than buying something you don't know where it will go, kwim?

I knew folks here would appreciate the 'Love grows best in little houses' cuz once my mom sees it she's sure to scoff.

Oh I will have to snag that idea from you.. I looked on ebay and found one I love! Thank you for the cute idea!

P.S. I like your kitchen!

Very nice! I love your kitchen and that sign will look great up there!

 

[mightymoo]

I decided to hang it up with velcro since I didn't see it balancing well on the one hook thing htat came with it. I got it up today and took a picture!

Check it out Aw, so cute.

[AutumnMelody]

Very cute! I think I'm going to have to make that my new motto!

 

[jtbuko]

Nice... might be stealing the idea too!

 

[cece]

love it! great find

 

[mightymoo]

Steal away! Wouldnt it be cool if the small house trend started sweeping the nation...

I'm new to this board and am finding it very inspiring! Love the sign!

where on ebay? does someone make them, or was it sold by someone random ... I've been wanting a sign like that ... expect mine would say, "Love grows best in old houses"

HEre is the seller I bought it from: http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZronnilianeQQhtZ-1

She has another one just like I bought up here: http://cgi.ebay.com/LOVE-GROWS-BEST-...em170092182891

She doesn't have custom ones listed, but I bet you could find one that does, or email her directly, she may make them herself and can make you a custom one.

I found it by searching for 'primitive' (which is the style) in this category:
Home> Buy> Home & Garden> Home Decor> Plaques & Signs> Wooden - there are other sellers who sell similar ones.
