Letter boards are easily customizable, have a great vintage appeal, and add a little bit of charm––and cheekiness––to any home. Don't agonize over turning the perfect phrase, though. Instead, grab some year-round inspiration from the letter board quotes below.

Winter Hibernation
Once the sequins and glitter settle after the New Year, nothing's left but bitter cold (unless you're lucky enough to live in a warm climate!) and forgotten resolutions. We promise you'll get through it—spring will be here sooner than you know it! Until then, occupy your time with new-but-easy recipes, relaxing pastimes, and productive planning. If you must give in to full hibernation mode, at least include some snuggle time.

Whether you love Mariah Carey's iconic album or you're into the straight-up classics, Christmas music puts everyone in a good mood, and it's never too soon to start jamming out (although, the day after Thanksgiving is pretty universally accepted).

Thanksgiving Mood
If there's any day of the year to ditch your diet and eat like you have the appetite of a growing adolescent boy, it's Thanksgiving. Fill up on turkey and don't skimp on any of the sides (they're arguably the best part!). Once you've cleared your plate of your second piece of pie, you've probably hit food coma status. This is where stretchy waistbands shine, so you can nap peacefully and do it all again tomorrow with leftovers!

Don't Grow Up, It's a Trap
When you were little, being sent to the kid's table might have felt unfair, but now that you're all grown up, you've realized the adult's table isn't what it's all cracked up to be. What if we want to color and talk cartoons and eat chicken nuggets forever? Some of us don't grow out of our picky eater habits!

Gobble, Gobble
There's nothing better than a nice juicy bird for Thanksgiving (well, except maybe the mashed potatoes, the gravy, the pie...). And while everyone agrees dry turkey is no good, that's no excuse to bring the word "moist" into the discussion! Shudder.

'Tis the Season for Eating
We're looking at you, leftover Halloween candy. Okay, so maybe we were a little too overzealous about the pumpkin spice lattes this year, but with Thanksgiving on the horizon, it's too late to slow down now! Just embrace the (oversized) sweater weather and wear high-rise jeans for the rest of the season (because let's be honest, we're not skipping out on any gravy this year).

Treat Yo Self
Hold the tricks, pass the treats. Thanks to "Parks & Recreation," National Treat Yo Self Day is October 13 every year. But long before this iconic episode aired in 2011, Halloween has served as a holiday where it's okay to really treat yourself. Whether you sneak Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Kit Kats from your kids' candy bags while they sleep or your workplace makes it hard to resist with candy bowls on every table—don't hold back! Halloween only happens once a year.

Whether your treat of choice is a candy apple or a warm mug of spiked apple cider, we're here for it! Cheers, friend.

We Didn't Choose the Ugg Life...
Whether or not you think Uggs are fabulous or, true to their name—ugly—here's no denying the pure coziness of these shoes. The second the temperatures dip below 50 degrees, we're digging through our closet looking for our favorite pair.

Leaf the Rake Behind
Who doesn't have fond memories of jumping gleefully into a freshly raked pile of leaves? When you're the one holding the rake, you might think you'd be less tempted, but the truth of the matter is that you're never too old to make the jump. This letter board will remind you to never let adulting scare you into losing your sense of childlike wonder.

It's All Just a Bunch of...
Hocus Pocus! Year after year, this movie retains its position as probably the most iconic Halloween movie. So go ahead, pop that popcorn and brew a cup of witches brew (AKA hot tea or cocoa) before hitting play—just maybe hold off on lighting any candles until sunrise.

The True Meaning of "Lit"
Pumpkin is to fall is like Netflix to Friday nights. But seriously, it's getting colder, and as much as we love a good happy hour, it's the cozy season—candles, blankets (preferably the chunky knit kind), and a snuggly pet on our laps are exactly what the doctor ordered.

Pumpkin Spice Lattes (PSL) Get an Upgrade
Let's be real: We all like to poke fun at the PSL, pigeon-holing it as "basic," but unless you truly don't like the taste of pumpkin spice, you probably have indulged in this sugary drink at least once in your life and liked it! But even with something this good, there's always room for improvement. Go ahead, pour a little Bailey's into your next latte—we won't tell.

Is This What Adulting Looks Like?
Adulting (v): waking up early, going to bed early, drinking lots of coffee, making macaroni and cheese outside of the box. Our true "clubbing" days may be over, but we're more than happy to graduate to this kind of clubbing—the kind with three slices of bread and a frilly toothpick.

Venti-Size Me
The only thing that gets us through Monday morning is veins pumping full of caffeine. In fact, we've likely had at least three cups of coffee by the time 5 pm rolls around—and hopefully that's sooner rather than later. Want to make your next Monday that much easier? Check out these great ways to improve your morning cup o' Joe.

Life's a Beach
Ahh, the smell of salt in the air, and the feel of the wind in our hair and sand in our toes, there's nothing like it. If we could spend every weekend at the beach this summer, we'd consider that paradise. But if you aren't quite so lucky to be able to do so, recreate that feeling in your own home.
