Language Arts

Along with the beautiful scenery, wonderful lake, and peace and quiet, Green Lake and the surrounding towns also offer great shopping. The downtown areas of Green Lake, Princeton, and Ripon are home to some lovely boutiques and unique shops. Last time we were at the lake, my mom and I headed out to do a little shopping because once the weather starts to cool down, there is not much to do at the lake and the boys were out golfing. We got a late start that morning and knew we had to hustle if we wanted to hit all our favorites before they closed.

Our first stop, Once In A Blue Moon, in downtown Princeton. Not only does Once In A Blue Moon carry great hostess gifts and things for your home, but it is also a great cafe. We were seated for lunch by a wall that was filled with photographs that had been take to form various words. My mom and I instantly decided that we were each going to purchase one to hang in our homes. The challenge would be which one to choose. I eventually ended up with "Faith," which is pictured above because I loved the pictures that were taken for each letter, especially the "I" and "T." My mom decided on "Family." As we were paying for our respective wall hangings, we started chatting with the owner about the pieces and come to find out you can custom order a word or phrase. I think a last name would be a neat addition to your home or perfect for a gift.

I have been trying to find a website for the artist that took the photographs, but no luck. The only information I do have is the name of the company, Language Arts and that it was made in Middlebury, Indiana. The pieces are just unique and something I have not seen before. If you would like one of these for your home, I know you can contact Once In A Blue Moon for more information.
