shabby chic qoutes help please

oddies

hello all
I am Re-decorating the Living room, got the curtains from Laura Ashley at a bargain price £140 down to £28 as there was a slight fault but I only want them for Display as I have Blinds, brought cushions but I could find no Art work which I liked or in price range I have ( they can be very pricy ) so I brought some frames & photo mounts from wilko's and I brought leaves from haberdashery shop ( there very fine so I sprayed silver ( with some spray paint left over that I found in shed :rotfl: ) i brought some cut out letters and a paint pot sample 3 for a £1 wilkos ( other two will do for kids art/craft box ) I have painted some of the letters ( in colours of curtains ) as I was thinking of using " our house " or "our home" for one picture but I cannot think of another quote to put in other picture, it cannot be very big as mount will not take it. ie: something along our home sample or nothing more than 7 letters. " our house" was a bit tight in the mounts only other one I came up with was chez nous which I think means our home but in French. has anyone got any other ideas or shabby chic quotes. thank you for your help in advance.

May be a bit tacky for some but it cheers me up, I have a triple frame and in each I have a yellowy orange, orange and pink backgrounds with Bring me sunshine, bring me laughter, bring me love in them. I like it!

I think laugh would make it to tight in frame. I think I am going for "our home" in one picture then " le mot du jour " which I think means tranquil but I need to re-check this but what ever it means I like the wording :rotfl:or failing that it's gong to have to be chez nous which is "at our home" or " at our house " I think I might have a look at that shabby chic thread as I only just seen that

I *think* "le mot du jour" means "word of the day", but my french is very rusty and probably wrong!

What about a photo of your house in black and white with the month and year you moved in on top in black?

I think you're right.

What about

vivre le rêve

Which is Live the Dream.
