I don't know about you, but I really enjoy sharing my love in little ways throughout my home. Whether I'm displaying little gifts we've given each other or straight up positive reinforcement prints, we enjoy having reminders of our love around the apartment.
Maybe our guests think it's icky or too cheesy, but I don't care. We like to keep subtle ways to remind us of our love around the house. Come on, we live with each other for a reason!
I grabbed one of these prints as soon as I could from illustrator Tad Carpenter. This is such a great quote and I know it runs true for a lot of apartment dwellers such as myself. I can't wait to receive it in the mail and frame it. It comes in a variety of colors too!
My good friend and illustrator Tuesday Bassen made this custom portrait of my little family. I think it's a great portrait that stands apart from the "let's go to Sears and have our portrait taken" photos most families keep in their home. Plus it features my two little kitties. I don't think they'd be up for a trip to Sears. You can order a custom portrait of your own in her shop!

Forget the prints. Where can I get that whale vase/mug thing? WANT.
@Pi, looks like Jonathan Adler.
it is jonathen adler – try pop deluxe.
Thank you! $95 for that pitcher is crazy. I still want it...but it's CRAZY.
The custom picture is so cute!
Love that your cats were in it too
I think Plasticland has a knockoff of that pitcher. And I must admit I think all this "OMG SO MUCH LOVE IN OUR HOUSE" thing is cheesy.
Love the pottery, not the poster. It's as classy as a "Hang In There, Baby!" kitty poster.
There's no need to purchase cute trinkets that publish to the world that the house is bursting with love. It just seems forced and lacking authenticity. Occasionally is fine. But people who know you should see it in your relationship, not on your walls.
I think pictures also display the love you share with your man, kids, pets beautifully. You don't usually see people talking about this. Thank you. It is beautiful.

this is so true! This is a reminder to really appreciate what you have, not complain about what you need( but you really do not need it)
I think this approach is a perfectly valid one for those who like it, and a bit cloying to those of us who don't.
I hate pink, but that doesn't mean nobody should ever use it in their house just because I wouldn't.
The portrait is a cute interpretation, and if I had a friend to draw one for me, I'd use it on my holiday cards, not on my walls... but that's just me.

Amen, leftleftright.
