Funky Mirror Shapes for Bedroom Walls

We have an exciting new product range for you.  Acrylic mirror shapes, which can be used to decorate bedroom walls.  These mirrors are made from acrylic and so are shatterproof.  They can be attached to the wall with sticky fixers, like our wall letters, meaning no screws or nails are required.

They are currently available in four sizes (all sizes are approximate) 5cm, 10cm, 15cm amd 20cm - but as usual we can most likely accommodate bespoke requests.  The pictures below show the shapes currently available, but we can provide almost any shape required so please just ask.  We will be adding to these shapes throughout the rest of the year.

Prices start at £1.50 for one shape - you could either buy several of one size, or a mix of sizes.  Click on the descriptions to view details or purchase.

Ideas for Wall Letters: Home Decoration

Wall letters have been around for a whole but are becoming an increasingly popular home decoration.  They are so versatile and can look great anywhere.  You can often find HOME, LOVE and PEACE in some of the most popular retailers, but if you are looking to be a little more adventurous and make your own personal stamp on it, here's a few ideas:

1) Children's Names - this is probably one of the most popular ways to use wall letters.  You can buy them in wood, acrylic or mirror finish and in the wood or acrylic - you can purchase them plain or decorated.  They look amazing on bedroom walls and are a fantastic personalised finish to any bedroom or nursery.

2) Nursery rhymes/ phrases - plain or mirror letters could also be used in a bedroom or nursery to spell out a favourite line from a nursery rhyme or perhaps a phrase to do with bedtime such as "Sweet Dreams".

3) Door/ Room Names - letters can be used to spell out the name of the child whose bedroom it is or the name of the room itself, for example "TOILET", "BATHROOM", "KITCHEN"

4) Favourite Phrases can be spelt out on a feature wall (LIVE LOVE LAUGH) or can be used on empty wall space in the house.  As can random words such as EAT above the cooker, DRINK above the fridge.

5) Christmas Messages and Decorations. We're getting seasonal now... you can choose any message or words that you like including the obvious Merry Christmas, Joy, Peace, Noel and so on.  If you have children you could make a decoration using the initial of their names, accessorised with christmas themed embellishments and using either a ribbon to hang it to the door or sticky fixers to attach it to their bedroom walls. 

You don't have to stop at the initial you could even spell out their whole name - the best thing is this is a personalised christmas decoration that can be used year after year.



If you are looking for wooden, acrylic or mirror finish letters to use in your home visit www.forkeepssake.co.uk.  We sell a whole range of wall letters and will soon be adding a selection of Christmas Letters to the website.  We can provide any letters in a huge selection of colours so just get in touch if you are looking for something specific, or use the links below:

More customer pictures - Baby Castings

Here's some more photos sent in from a customer that bought a baby casting kit.  She'd never used a casting kit before, but had some amazing results as you can see from the images below.  These photos were all taken prior to painting but still illustrate the lifelike detail of each of the casts.

We sell different sized casting kits with a choice of paints and sell them alone or with box frames.  We also sell box frames on their own for those of you that have already made the casts and now want somewhere to display them.

See our website for more details.

New Range of Extra Deep Box Frames for Keepsakes

I'm sure there only a few people that get excited about frames - me being one of them, particularly when I took delivery of our new range of frames.  We've had a number of requests from customers for different colours and sizes, so we've now added several more extra deep frames to our website.

The frames are all modern looking with a box fixed to the back, to get the extra depth.  They are all 55m deep internally - giving much flexibility of what can be displayed in the frame.

I hope you like them as much as me (or somewhat as much as me!!).  Here's some pictures of a couple of the frames - check out our website for the complete range!

Black 8 x 10 Extra Deep Box Frame: 55mm Deep - Front View

New Name Canvases for Boys!

Here are two additions to our boys canvas range.  Both are geared more towards babies rather than toddlers/ young kids and so would make fantastic new baby gifts or nursery accessories for those expecting a boy. 

Both of these designs were created following customer requests - so please do tell us if there's is something in particular you'd like as we are always looking to add designs to our ranges.

All of our canvases are available in 3 sizes: 20x20cm, 25x25cm and 30x30cm.  We can also adapt the colours for any design - to match nursery and bedroom decor.

Some of our Customers Pictures

I love it when our customers send photos in to either show us what they have used our keepsake frames for; how their baby castings have turned out or how their wall letters or canvas names look in their children's bedrooms.  

These pictures were from a customer with a bespoke order for black and pink letters to match her nursery.  We thought she'd made a fantastic job of the nursery and were very pleased to hear what she said about us:

"I cant reccomend this buisness enough, they have been great to communicate with, i placed a specific order and they matched it perfectly without a problem, the product looks great so i thought id share it...i am very pleased and my little girl will be amazed, thanks very much x"

We'd love to see more photos from customers so please keep them coming and we'll post them to the blog.

These black and pink letters are available to buy from our website

Wooden Letters for Wedding Decoration

Wooden Initials Hanging in the Car

We love this original idea for wooden letters as wedding decorations. Our customer was mother of the groom and wanted to find something unique and personal for her 

son and his fiancee for their wedding day.  She decided to buy two wooden letters (the initials of both of their names) and hang them from the front seats of the wedding car, so they would be opposite them when they sat down. We painted the letters to match the wedding colour scheme and kept the decoration simply - using a butterfly for the brides letter (M) and a few stars for the groom's letter (A).

We were really pleased to hear back from our customer after the wedding, not only had they had a fantastic day but the bride and groom were also thrilled with their gift.  After the wedding they hung them up on the wall above their bed as a wedding keepsake.

If you are looking for wooden letters for wedding decorations - we'd love to hear from you.  Our website currently has a range of Wooden Letters for girls and boys, which will give you an idea of how they look and the prices.  We're happy to help with any bespoke requests so please feel free to get in touch with your requirements.

Customer Photo - Unique Baby Cast Display

Here's a fab photo that one of our customers has been kind enough to send in.  Rather than taking the usual display approach  (a photo and a cast) Charlotte had a shelf fixed into it for the rollies to sit on and then included two casts of her son Gabriel - one at 3 weeks and the second at 9 weeks.

We love this photo and think it makes a unique and very personal display.  Thanks for sharing Charlotte!

Just what Keepsake Frames are for!

Here's an email we received from a customer who bought one of our Keepsake Frames.  

I wanted to share it, as for me it completely sums up the reason for our keepsake frames - to display cherished items that hold great value and sentiment to us.  I love this picture, for the reasons explained by the customer below.  You don't have to frame something that is still completely perfect and in tact as more often than not, it is items such as the teddy bear that have been used and loved and are therefore worn out, that remind us of the most precious times.  

"I just wanted to let you know that I wanted the frame to put a little teddy in that my now 19 yr old son used to carry everywhere. 

It is completely without ears - has hardly any arms and legs but was so loved and I thought it would be a lovely way to preserve what there is left and to look at to remind me to wonder where all the years have gone.

Many thanks he fits perfectly."

So a huge thank you to our customer for not only sharing the story but also the picture of the bear in the frame.  If anyone else is happy to share their images, please email us at info@forkeepssake.co.uk.

If you are looking for a deep box frame to display your cherished keepsake, visit our website to view our range.  Thanks for reading!
