Vinyl Quotes - Official Time of Death circa 2008



Dear DIY Decorators,

Enough is enough! Vinyl lettering does not belong on your walls, it belongs in the commercial world IE - signage. It is one thing in a public place where a person needs directions, it is another thing entirely to put it up on your home's walls to state the obvious, meaningless or cliche.

Examples: “Live Laugh Cry,” (ugh) or the obvious “Families are Forever" (blah).

It’s like a song on the radio that got too much airtime, it’s just played out. I would like to pronounce inspirational quotes, sayings, and all other types of vinyl lettering adhered to your residence DEAD.


Sincerely,

MS. Lyle-Mason


PS - If you have-to-have-to have a quote on your wall. At least be unique and custom design it by finding an obscure quote that embodies you, and then I won’t mind so much.
