I found cute, red alphabet decals at www.Art-A-Peel.com as well as raised, mdf shapes Yellow Squares at Art-A-Peel.com... I like these for kids, or mod decor in particular...

Does anyone know where I might find smaller, 2"-3" metal letters?

Haven't letters been the trend for quite some time? Is this new again already?

I like to use letters recovered from buildings. I have a stainless steel uppercase B that is about 6" high and 7" wide. It is beautiful, and weighs a ton. But it fits me, as I am a designer and very into type.

When I was a teen back in 1974, I bought and painted a wooden "D" for my bedroom (well, yes, maybe a little MTM) and carried it into my marriage with a guy named "Dave". How lucky could I get? It now hangs around with other "D"s I've accumulated over the years in our hallway.
