"You and Me"

"You and Me"
I read this quote and I just loved it.  Immediately I thought it deserved to be imortalized in scrabble letters . . . Hope you like it. 
" I LAUGH I CRY I HOPE I TRY I HURT I NEED
I FEAR I LOVE AND I KNOW YOU DO TOO
SO WE ARE REALLY NOT THAT DIFFERENT YOU AND ME"

A small wood cabinet door found at Habitat for Humanity's Re-Store is the perfect frame for this piece. The door is covered, front and back, in rich, vibrant green tissues, bits of vintage sheet music, and hand written letters and pattern pieces.  The piece is ready to hang or sit on a stand.

    Jackie, i thought you might like this, given you work with 'letters' all the time. i love working with scrabble tiles and child's wooden blocks. my new thing is trying to figure out how many words i can come up with the letters: B I N G O any ideas?
