Hello Sunshines and Happy Wednesday! I am busy getting ready to head out of town with the baby this weekend but wanted to pop in to show you how (and why) to make “Eat Well Travel Often Choose Joy” DIY Large Wall Art for the foyer.
But this DIY art isn’t just random inspirational words slapped up on paper. It has a back story.
DIY Large Wall Art – EAT WELL
Growing up, I was lucky to have four active grandparents that brought so much joy into my childhood. This weekend we will be honoring my paternal grandparents in a memorial service. My paternal grandfather (Opa) was a German chef, his greatest joy was cooking amazing meals for his loved ones. My grandmother (Oma) was always in the kitchen and together they owned several successful German restaurants. They truly believed that “Eating Well” was the finest pleasure and expressed their love through food.
Eat Well is a tribute to my Opa & Oma.
DIY Large Wall Art – TRAVEL OFTEN
Travel Often is a tribute to my Grandpa & Grandma.
DIY Large Wall Art – CHOOSE JOY
YES! Joy is a choice and I Choose Joy!

Love the giant text art, but especially the meaning behind it! Such a special way to remember your loved ones. I agree 100% about navy. It manages to be classic and modern at the same time. Beautiful entryway!
