    New Letter Art Coming November 2009

    Monday, September 28th, 2009

    Hey Everybody,

    I hope you all had a great weekend! I just wanted to fill you all in on what’s going down here at Letter Your Legacy.  People often ask for new letter art, and we have delivered! This summer, in June, our family went on an awesome trip to Israel. This was such a great experience and the country was so gorgeous and had so much history and character that we decided to take and entire collection of letter art here.  We ended up with multiple letters for the entire alphabet.

    A country full of so many ancient ruins gave us an opportunity to take letter art pictures like we never had before.  This trip was such a blast and we ended up with an entire group of about 25 looking for letter art all over Israel!

    Well, I couldn’t tell you all about the new letter art and not give you a sneak peek, right? Here are just a few of the awesome letter photos we were able to capture in Israel.

    Letter Art "E"

    Letter Art "E"

    This example of letter art is a lower case “E”.  This is just a strand of rope draped into the shape of an “E”.  A simple letter photo, but I feel like it will be one of our more popular letters because it is creative and abstract, but at the same time it is very clearly an “E”.

    Letter Art "T"

    Letter Art "T"

    This letter art image was taken to be a lower case “T”.  Stacy took this shot on our super cool boat that we rode across the Sea of Galilee.  It was such a beautiful day and a smooth ride.  This was absolutely one of my favorite days in Israel.

    Your Name in Pictures

    Friday, September 25th, 2009

    Hey Everybody,

    So I’m sure a lot of you are on this site because you either love/have your name in black and white pictures or you want to get one.  Why wouldn’t you want one?  Letter Your Legacy offers something that most everyone else in home decor isn’t able to. So, what do we offer that others don’t? Personalization.

    Our homes are personal to us and we put a lot of thought and effort into the way they look.  By putting your name in our letter pictures, you have given yourself something personal and customized to display proudly in your home.  It’s the same reason we put up family photos on the walls, bookshelves and mantel.  We love our families and we want to share our family pride with others when they enter our homes.  By putting your name in pictures, you are showing others the love and pride you have for your own family and legacy.  By giving a framed name to someone else, you are showing them that you respect and appreciate their family heritage.

    Instead of going to a corporate home decor chain to buy a sign that says “Family”, why not visit www.letteryourlegacy.com and create your own name in black and white pictures to convey your appreciation for family.

    When you get your name in pictures from Letter Your Legacy, you’ve got a one of a kind piece of artwork.  Even if someone else shares your last name, they probably didn’t choose the same letters and frame option! Notice how the example below brings personalization to a stylish and sophisticated home.

    Here at Letter Your Legacy, we would love to be a part of making your home more personalized and special to you.  We are certain that you will love creating your name in our black and white pictures. Feel free to contact us with any questions you might have.

    Why Letter Pictures?

    Monday, September 21st, 2009

    Hey Letter Your Legacy Fans,

    I’m sure a lot of you out there love giving a gift to someone, but hate picking it out. If you’re like me, the stress of trying to buy for that picky person almost isn’t worth it. Will they like it…will they hate it? I mean, who wants to buy someone a gift and have it end up in a closet or garage sale?

    Well Bloggers, the perfect gift is here. Not only is it here, but it’s here for ALL occasions. Letter pictures from Letter Your Legacy are the easiest and funnest gift you will ever give someone.  Letter pictures are always a well received gift because they are so unique and custom made. How else are you going to make a gift for someone and have it end up looking so professional and well put together?  Letter pictures from Letter Your Legacy are quality products, made by experienced framing professionals in Edmond, Oklahoma.  Not only is your letter picture going to look awesome, but it’s also going to look like you paid a lot more for it.  Many of our competitors charge well over one hundred dollars and upwards for their letter pictures.  Anyone who has seen framed letter art before is going to assume you spent a lot more than you did!

    Need more reasons for letter pictures? Not a problem! Our framed names can suit any stye of home.  We have several different types and colors of frames (while others only offer black…boring!) and we have a variety of letter photos as well. Check out the different styles of these letters.

    Rustic "B"

    Contemporary "B"

    Notice how the top letter picture has a much more rustic, cowboy kind of feel to it. However, the bottom “B” was taken from an architectural view, therefore making it more contemporary.

    Need an even larger frame for a more extravagant letter picture gift? Check out our Premium Frames for a whole new style. The link on the website will take you to build a Premium Frame on our sister company, Letter Keepsakes.   We’ve got even more letter pictures on this site as well!

    Framed Name Success!

    Saturday, September 19th, 2009

    Hi Awesome Bloggers,

    I hope you are all having a fantastic weekend! I’m sure the weather is getting much colder for some of you.  Here in Oklahoma the weather is still pretty mild, which I am so happy about since I HATE cold weather! I must admit though, we have gotten some pretty awesome letter pictures in the snow before :)

    So, I’m sure many of you have given a Letter Your Legacy framed name as a gift before and hopefully you got a great response.  My first time giving a Letter Your Legacy framed name was definitely well worth it.  Last summer (this was before I started working for Letter Your Legacy) my hair dresser was getting married and I decided to design for her and her new husband a framed name.  Thankfully for me, Letter Your Legacy has such a wide variety of letter pictures that I was able to use a barber pole picture for an “I” in their framed name!  How perfect was that for a hair dresser?? Here it is below if you have never seen it in our Photo Gallery.

    So, rather than wrapping my newly designed framed name, I just put some tulle into a bow and stuck it on the corner.  I figured my framed name was a lot more interesting to look at than wrapping paper anyway!  It turned out that since I didn’t wrap the framed name, they displayed the name in the center of the gift pile at the reception because they thought it was so cool! This was probably the BIGGEST wedding I had ever been to, so it almost made me laugh to see my custom designed framed name amidst hundreds of other gifts. (I’m not kidding Bloggers, I’ve never seen so many presents in my life!)

    Do any of you have a fun story to tell about giving a framed name to a friend or family member? Feel free to post it in the comment section. If not, get started designing your own framed name right now. Christmas will be here before you know it!

    The Stories Behind the Letters…

    Thursday, September 17th, 2009

    Greetings Bloggers!

    I thought I would start out this blog showing you some of my personal favorite letter photos. This is one of my favorite “E” letter photos.

    Dripping icicle forms a letter art "E"

    This particular “E” is actually very important to the history of Letter Your Legacy.  As some of you might already know, Adam and Stacy began their journey with letter photos by creating a Christmas gift for Adam’s parents.  They loved the idea of a framed name and just needed to find the letters to spell out “Teague“.  Prior to Christmas day, we all took a family vacation to Breckenridge, Colorado, where they found lots of great snowy letter photos! As you can see, this particular “E” is an icicle dripping turned sideways. This “E” was selected to be the last letter in “Teague” in the first Letter Your Legacy frame ever! Obviously Adam and Stacy wanted to include their original letters when they finally launched the company almost one year later. Thanks to thisicicle “E” and five other letter photos, Letter Your Legacy is the place to buy framed names!

    The letter “E” is a very common one so we’ve got to have a great selection of “E” letter photos to satisfy many of or customers. So, what is our most popular “E” you might ask?

    Well here you have it!  The letter photo posted below is actually a lower case “E”.  I love the way this tree trunk posed so perfectly to form a small “E”.  How convenient! Most customers are drawn to this letter for their framed names because it is creative, but at the same time it is an obvious letter photo.  Seriously Bloggers, if you are buying for someone with an “E” in their last name this is a go-to, sure hit letter photo.
