I would hang this in my living room! It would add a pop of color! Amazing. I have seen her work around the decor blogosphere, very modern and chic!

Elizabeth said...

I absolutely love the saying and the color of it is adorable! I have 3 girls and so everything in our house is pink. I would hang it in my loft with my other pink stuff so everyone can see it!!

this print would inspire me most in my craft room--I'd look at it anytime I had to use my seam ripper on a mistake!

Emily C. said...

I'd love to see this in my kitchen!

Liz Weiler said...

I'd love to look at it when I've had one of those days with my three year old son.

Bekah said...

I would love to give this to my sister to put in her study. She is a first time homeowner trying to decorate and this is so cute! She would love it!

Just blogged about your great giveaway! blessedinthebasketblessedinthestore.blogspot.com

I would hang this in my laundry room...a place where i spend a lot of time!

megan&steve said...

since my hubby is gone for 6 months with the ARMY "keep calm, carry on" is a great motto for the kids & I. We will hang it by the kitchen table.

Liz said...

I think I would put it in my family room since it is rather bare and we spend a lot of time there.

Shannon said...

SUPER CUTE!! I vote the lady whose hubby is in the army gets it! If I win I'll give it to her so she can put it in her dining room!!

Liz said...

I blogged about it.

I have the perfect little piece of wall near the dining room table for this! This is where we gather for so many daily activities...like HOMEWORK!

twoandtworoberts said...

I would put this on the wall in my kitchen just above where I do the dishes, because I slam cupboard doors, and find snacks in that room to handle my stress. . .maybe I would do less of both if I had a beautiful reminder to be calm!!

Wendy said...

I would give it to my sister, who needs some serious encouragement right now!

Kristen said...

I have been out of town and just saw this. I would put it in my home office where I seem to spend most of my time. I am just about to embark on life as a single mom after 20 years of marraige, and quite often I tell myself, "just keep going, you will be fine". I think this beautiful statement would inspire me when I feel that fear and panic, and when I want to crawl back into bed. I hope I win!

E.Daw said...

Well, my first inclination is to hang it in the powder room since I always have five kids pounding on the door (not always productive LOL!) But more likely I would hang this in my bedroom because the color is fantastic for that spot and it would really help me in the encouragement department while I am going through a medical scare. I would take winning it as a "good sign" LOL!

Laura Waltz said...

I would have to hang this somewhere that I could look at it often. I think it's a great statement, one we can all benefit from thinking about. It would probably go in our office really nicely!

Unknown said...

oh, i've been wanting one of these posters for a while..
i hope i win, i'd love to put it in my entry way!

Ku'uipo said...

I think I would put it in my laundry room! It would keep me calm when seeing the loads keep piling up...lol.

Unknown said...

OHHH so pretty! There is not a space in my home that this would not work!

kscott77 said...

I would give this to one of my best friends who loves history and would love the simplicity of this saying. She's had quite some obstacles and hurts in her life and this would definately provide encouragement for her!

Emily said...

I love this print! I would hang it in my workroom so I could read it everyday as I watch my two year old spread toys all over our family room!

Alicia L. said...

Lovely print. I would hang it in my office at home.
Thanks!

lzjones said...

I'd hang it in my dining room so I could look at it every day. It's a great print.

thanks!

I would definitely love to give this to my little sister who is a freshman in college this year. It would look perfect in her dorm room! She's always been at the top of her class and college has definitely been a whole new experience for her. I'm sure many of us can relate the new experiences living away from home. Good thing she has a good big sister who lives just around the corner ;-)

I would give this to my little sister. She just got married (that can get crazy at times), but the most amazing thing she does is work at a troubled girl's home every day. She loves the girls most in their teens dealing with abuse, addictions and pregnancies. She has a huge heart and I just know that she is making an impact on those girls! Love you lil' sis!
