I love type. 
red graphic lampshade
I love everything about it.  How it looks...how it can change a project from good to great...how it can stand alone and be perfect.  
There is just something about letters that makes my heart sing.  Especially a lower case g.  Something about that shape. (I secretly wish my name started with g... p is such a boring letter) 

Numbers tooSome numbers rank higher than others (because of their shape)... 2, 3 and 5 are most desirable, but of course we are both partial to 7's.
I thought I would see what I could find out there that related to type...just a sampling of what is available on ETSY among other places. 

gosh, I love that letter g...

love this idea...These prints are created using 25 words, numbers and phrases of your choice. The theme is up to you whether it's based on trips you've taken around the world, family memories growing up or inside jokes with friends...maybe even all the addresses of places you have lived.
18 x 24 runs about $120- other sizes available.  (btw - genius Christmas present)

I will end with the genius work of Sande Krieger.  Did you see what she did to her bathroom door?  I have been in that bathroom, in fact I helped her pick out the floor tiles...but this is over the top good.

  4. I laughed when I read your comment about the "lower case g"! I love that letter too, and have bought packages of alphabets, because I have liked the way the "g" looked!
