Checking Our List #11: Alphabet Photography Inspirational Series Review & Giveaway (Winner's Choice!)

Anyone who has been in my house knows that many of my walls are full of pictures of our kids, family and the special times we've shared together. It's what really makes it feel like a home. I like for the decor I use to not only be warm and inviting, but also something that represents who I am and the things that are important to me. That's why I love Alphabet Photography and their one of a kind selection of letter art.

Alphabet Photography is the work of Jennifer Blakeley, inspired by a children's book called "Alphabet City"by Stephen T. Johnson. Jennifer spent time traveling Canada to collect a gallery of photos that resemble letters of the English Alphabet. All of the photos are of objects found in their natural surroundings. After returning, and growing the business, Alphabet Photography is now a very successful company with a customer base from all around the world.

For those who have been visiting my blog for a while, you may remember the review I did for Alphabet Photography last January. I was sent a framed Customized Alphabet Photography Word of my choice and couldn't have been happier with the result. Our 'Family' piece of art is still hanging in the living room where visitors see it the moment they walk into our home. We've received several compliments on it and have had many people ask where they can purchase one for themselves.

From the moment I saw the great quality and beauty in the pictures they have taken, I knew I wanted to collect more Alphabet Photography pieces over time. I have been browsing through their Inspirational Series for quite some time and was excited to learn that we were going to have the opportunity to review one.

There are several that would be a great fit for our family, but I was instantly drawn to the HOME frame and decided to go with that one. I'm so happy that I did!

When the product arrived I was very excited to check it out. As I pulled it out of the box I was happy to find that they had carefully wrapped it and covered the edges to keep it safe in shipment. I appreciate companies that take care in the way they send items like this.

Once I got it out of the bubble wrap and cardboard, I was once again in awe! The sepia toned pictures are breathtaking and, that along with the black frame, make this a truly remarkable piece to look at and have displayed in my home.

Aside from the stunning pictures that spell out the word HOME, is the inspirational quote which drew me to this particular collage frame in the first place.

It takes hands to build a house, but only hearts can build a home' - Unknown

This quote couldn't have been more perfect. It's the love that we share and the memories we create that truly make it a place we can call our home. I love it!!

The size is also something I really appreciate. At 15 x 13 inches it's small enough to hang pretty much anywhere, yet large enough that it stands out and catches people's attention the moment they walk into a room.

I was very impressed with the quality right from the start. It's printed on Professional Grade Crystal Archive Photographic Paper, mounted on wood, framed with a black high quality wood frame. It's extremely durable and something I know will last.

Once again, Alphabet Photography did not disappoint. I am continually amazed with their great selection. I mean, who doesn't love to have a customized piece unlike any other? I know I do! That's what I love about this company. With over 1000 Alphabet photographs to choose from, you can easily create a piece that is truly one of a kind.

The letter art from Alphabet Photography is stunning and timeless. With the wide selection of products...everything from calendars and posters to customized words and inspirational alphabet art...there's something for everyone.
