For those of you, gentle readers, who do not know my husband is a graphic designer and as such he has always had a fondness for letters (as in the alphabet), posters and other random bits of paper. He also has taught college for the last 5 years or so and has occasionally gotten some pretty fun gifts via his students.


Above is a large S (about 2 feet by 2 feet) from a remodeled Savemart one of his students worked at. It was just going to be thrown out to make way for newer (and I guess the management was thinking more sophisticated?) neon signage. This S has been in our family for many moves and always finds a prominent place in our home. Recently Dan also acquired an N, which was placed on the facing wall and coincidentally also orients us to north and south. This old signage has been a fun and thrifty addition to our home.
