Open for Business

Many of you already know that I create verses and quotes that people apply to their walls. For some time now I have thought about making it a little bit more of an official enterprise. I've been tossing around some ideas for a business name, and I thought I would ask you for your help. Here are some of my ideas, but feel free to post others if you have some.

Words of Wisdom

Wise Words

Wisdom for your Walls

Wall Words

Wall Wisdom

And here are a few samples of wall verses I've done. I hope to add more photos yet, and create a new blogsite for my business. Some of you may recognize photos of your walls.

Hi Heather,
You don't know me, but I found your blog through Erica's. I've been following for awhile, and I must say you are such an encouragement and inspiration:) I like 'Words of Wisdom' best as well, and if you are open for business, I would definitely like to place an order! They look amazing!

What a great idea! I love it! Would those letters stick to a painted canvas?

Wenona said...

who is that adorable baby in the first picture? ;)
I love the idea that you are getting into the business because I have had people ask me where they can get this done.
I like "Wisdom for your Walls". It's catchy!
Thanks again for doing that for me, I look at it every night when I put Koen to bed and it reminds me how blessed we are to have him.

I miss my verse on the wall. It was nice to see it again.
Thanks for calling today. I appreciate your constant friendship so much.
I like the "words of wisdom" the best.

I also like Words of Wisdom! What about "Words of Life"?

Those are beautiful! Can I ask how much you charge and is it something that can be shipped and done by a person? Or do you have to put them up?

Jenny said...

I'm a lurker...
I like Words of wisdom, or how about wallspirations.
I'd be interested in getting some...how much do your charge?

Erica H said...

What a neat idea! Very cool! I like "Words of Wisdom", OR you could try something like "If Your Walls Could Speak..."

Greta job!

Hi! I need to put together a pricing list - but right now I just price each verse separately, because it all depends on size, colour, etc. The top verse shown ("I praise you...") was $50. I can definately ship orders worldwide, and you can put it up on your wall on your own. No problem!

Jobina - is the canvas surface smooth? I think they would stick as long as the surface was smooth.

Some of the verses my older children would want on their walls are not biblical so I am wondering if you are limiting yourself by your business name. For instance, "Sister are different flowers from the same garden" or just personal words like "Megan BFF, Ringette, Girls Rule" My 10 year old daugher is nuts about polkadots. So I had thought about cutting different colored circles with words inside and sorta doing a mural with different sizes of dots.
Here is a name I saw online "Wall Nutz" Pretty witty eh?
I thought of "Write-on Verses"

I am definately not limited to doing only Biblical verses. I have done some quotes, words and shapes, but I don't have any photos of those ones yet. I was sort of leaning towards "Wall Words", because it is pretty generic. However, I don't think that "Words of Wisdom" would limit it only to Bible verses - wisdom can come in all shapes, sizes, quotes and words! My nearest competitor is called "LifeWords" - so I don't want it so be too similar.

Yeah you're right. It was probably the samples that swayed me. I also like Wall Words or maybe WriteOn Walls. Your venture sounds like a lot of fun!

Jamie said...

They look awesome. It's a great idea - especially for kid's rooms! My fave is "Wall Words".

Jobina said...

I'm not sure if they're smooth, I'll have to check at Michael's.
I like the slogan, "If your walls could speak..."
Again, GREAT idea!

Ellen said...

would they be easy to remove too? not re-use, just remove - I think I have a perfect spot in my house for something like this, but if we are going to sell the house in the next few years I would like to be able to tell buyers that it's easily removed without wrecking the walls :)

Ellen - I have not tried removing any of these verses myself, but I do know that it is possible. If the letters don't just easily peel off, they can be heated up with a blow dryer and then peeled off.

Ooooo... PRETTY!

Your readers are SMART! I liked all their ideas! I like all of your names with wall in them. And I liked your readers names wallspirations, words of life, and write-on verses... So really... I'm not help. I think it would be good if it had wall in it to give more of an idea of what you are about. But that's just me. I also loved "If your walls could talk..." as a slogan. Where do you find all these smarties?

I can't wait to see if you get this up and running! I would love to order some of these for myself and as gifts for friends and family. Beautiful!
