I'm obsessed with typography and the aesthetic value of letters. There's something very cool about taking something that's not usually seen for it's own beauty and making it the centerpiece--and since letters are mostly used for forming words, I love trying to take away the written context and making each letter stand out and have it's own aesthetic value.

Anthropologie has these awesome wooden letters on
sale right now for $3.95 a piece. I'm just brimming with ideas of how to use them... please feel free to share yours!

I'm pretty obsessed with typography too. What really gets me excited are the wooden blocks of letters used in presses. One day I will acquire a large collection of them. I'm not sure what I'd do with them, but I'll think of something.
Etsy has a bunch for sale:
