Hello, Happy Spring
Spring is taking its time to come visit us in the
Northwest. It has snowed in this month of April! I have begun to do a Spring/Sunshine/Warm weather dance, anything to
get weather to be more spring-like. The dance may be paying off
since we are finally going to see some warming. My tulips are
starting to grow and it won't be too long before our flowering trees are
in bloom.
Mother's Day is quickly approaching on May 11,
2008. I remember always getting a carnation flower from church or
businesses and never thought much about it. I did a little research
and found out that Anna Jarvis, daughter of Anna Reeves Jarvis, was the
power behind the establishment of Mother's Day. She passed out 500 white
carnations in 1907 to each mother at her mother's church, St. Andrew's
Methodist Episcopal Church in Grafton, West Virginia. Anna Jarvis
dedicated her life to her mother's project to establish a Mother's day
to honor mothers, living and dead. She wanted Mother's Day to be a
day of sentiment to remember our mothers.
It wasn't until 1914 that the U.S. Congress passed
a Joint Resolution, and President Woodrow Wilson signed it, establishing
Mother's Day.
Now we think of honoring our moms with a nice
meal, card and flowers. Here at Natural Sentiments we have
a generous selection of gifts from which you can select for your Mother. We even have gifts
that you
can make very personal.
Our motivational art is a great way to make a
personal statement. We offer motivational art pieces that you can customize
with your own title and motivational message. We will print
the motivational art piece with your selected or customized title and
motivational message. So, if you see some underlying motivational theme
in one of our images, you can now customize it to include your unique
motivational message.
Some motivational messages for Mother's Day may be:
Title: Mother Message: Thank you for being there for me
Title: Soccer Mom Message: You can always count on Mom to get to soccer practice
Title: Mother Message: A Mother is for Caring, Sharing, and Loving
Each motivational art piece is available in 11x14 or 16x20 sizes. We
also can frame the motivational art. An 11x14 print with your selected
title and motivational text can be matted and framed in a 16x20 black
metal frame, white matting, and with protective clear glazing. A 16x20
print with your selected title and motivational text can be matted and
framed in a 20x24 black metal frame, white matting, and with protective
clear glazing.
