AcBKT



My arrangement of letters above Raz Man's desk has house guests, pondering, arranging and re-arranging in their heads and trying to beat the clock and solve the puzzle.

All the letters are from old defunct or demolished buildings in and around the Tampa/St. Pete area...the A is for our surname and each letter is the first initial of me, boy child, girl child and DIL. I am missing the Raz Man's initial, but he is confident of his place in this family and can wait until an appropriate letter falls off an old cinema. Good thing I'm not that woman from 19 Kids and Counting TV show...I'd have 19 J's on my wall........and counting...

    Creative idea, great letter variety and design . . . Thank goodness you aren't searching for 19 letters or mothering 19 kids . . .

    That looks great! You also hit upon my secret obsession - can you imagine having 19 kids? ;)
    By the way, I love your happy, sun-soaked, photo. I want to be where you are!

    I love letters and found some great ones one day. Joe and I looked and looked for a "L" but could not find one but like you know one will turn up. I think Ms. Dugger has exceeded 20 kids now.

    Hi Chania

    The walls looks terrific and you arranged them beautifully. How great that you have some history included in the arrangement. A conversation piece as well as decorative.
    The desk is perfect too

    I like the way you've arranged those letters Chania. Will you squeeze Mr Raz between the A and the C?

    I'm glad I'm not the only one to do this! Babygirl's bedroom has an 18" lower case initial on the wall in the same red as your 'c'. Half her walls are almost that shade of red, and the letter is on one of the white walls. It gets more comments thatn the color itself, and it's Babygirls's favorite thing.

    Chania I find this a very clever arrangement. A great way to celebrate your family unit. Surely the wind and rain we have had knocked down the letter you need! Ann
