♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Christmas Notes from Donna ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪

"The Art of Self Expression


Make your space a reflection of the unique individual you are. Whether you identify with a deeply motivational thought, a beautiful embellishment, a bold image, or a combination of these, Uppercase Living® expressions let you be who you are and let you express that uniqueness in your surroundings. We call this the art of self expression." (taken from the website)

UL makes great gifts as they are an inexpensive & easy way to decorate your home!

Donna's top picks for the Holidays:

1) Photo Memories Kit #80010 $44.95


Pictured as "Believe in the Magic of the Season" The green board comes already painted, making it easy to complete the kit. You just apply the expression desired. I recommend using the alternate expression "Family, Always & Forever" as you can keep this up even after the holidays.

















2) Photo Prints


Uppercase Living can enlarge your favorite photo placing it on removable & reusable vinyl!















Donna is offering $5 off any order of $50 or more!

Also, Get a FREE Value Pack with the Purchase of a Photo Print
Now you can express what’s uniquely you in your small spaces, too! Beginning
