Family Rules Sign — In This Family We Do Love & Grace

Two Rules, And They Cover Almost Everything

Most a family rules sign tries to list ten things. This one lists two, because love and grace between them handle the other eight. Grace is the one families forget to write down and need the most — room to get it wrong and still belong.

Cut Into the Wood, Not Printed On It

The letters are CNC-carved down through the stain into raw pine, so what you are reading is actual depth, not ink. Run a thumb across it. That pale-against-dark contrast is why it still reads across a dim room, and why it will not chip, peel, fade or bubble the way printed decor does by year two.

Where It Ends Up

• Living room — above the sofa where everyone lands
• Entry or foyer — the first thing said to a guest
• Stairwell gallery wall — among the family photos
• Dining room — over the table that hears everything
