Finding Words to Fit
Dec 29
I have a very vivacious, dramatic and equally adorable almost two year old little girl. Every day this little person challenges me in more ways than I ever thought possible but with each challenge and frustrating situation I can’t help but laugh at her or squeeze her tight for being so cute. Because of her larger than life personality I want her room to reflect who she is as a person at this point in her life and I am having a bit of difficulty finding decor to fit.
We recently put Luna in her “big girl” bed (post coming soon) and I have been on the hunt for wall art to complete her room. I love the idea of having a quote print framed that fits her little personality. I began my search on Pintrest b/c in the past I have seen these quote prints 100s of times but now that I am really looking for one I cannot find what I am looking for. So then I start to think that I may have created what I want in my mind and it doesn’t actually exist, which is a huge problem.
I don’t think that my criteria are that hard to meet but let’s see what you think.
1. Color Scheme – I would love something that is vintage-y colored to match her rustic white furniture. So muted tones of white/beige, turquoise, coral and yellow would be preferable. Something like the color schemes of the photos in this post.
2. Font/Style – I want something that looks “designed” not something that looks like I typed it up in Word, slapped in on a solid background and called it a day. I love fonts, shadows, effects that only a designer can do.
3. Quote – Here is the tough part, finding a quote that matches her personality, that is not overly childish and that comes in the colors/fonts/styles that I want from above. The main problem is that I can find items in the color/style I want but the quotes don’t fit. Here are my top picks for quotes:
“I’m just trying to change the world one sequin at a time.” -Lady Gaga
“You have to be unique, and different, and shine in your own way.” -Lady Gaga
“Don’t you ever let a soul in the world tell you that you can’t be exactly who you are.” -Lady Gaga
“I’ve always been famous, it’s just no one knew it yet.” -Lady Gaga
“Some girls were just born with glitter in their veins.” -Paris Hilton
“Well behaved women rarely make history” -Marilyn Monroe
“I always thought I should be treated like a star.” -Madonna
“Don’t just stand there let’s get to it. Strike a pose, there’s nothing to it.” -Madonna
“A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.” -Coco Chanel
So what do you guys think…did I make this up? b/c I cannot find what I am looking for anywhere.
Hopefully I can find words to fit my little lady’s huge personality!

Love the quotes! Don’t you have artists at work? If not, I can ask my artist friend to do them for you.
