Have you heard of Barn Owl Primitives? I’m crushing on their welcome message on Etsy >> Welcome to the Barn ~ home of Family Rules and Typography Word Art ~ signs to decorate your life!

Barn Owl Primitives’ wooden signs are distressed and antiqued for an aged, vintage finish…

Kristi, the owner & designer, writes:

    For whatever the reason, I LOVE letters. So, I started my typography signs as a way of getting all those letters out of my system. I enjoy laying out the letters, creating a picture, and telling a story. Have a story that you would like to share? Let me paint a custom sign for you so you can share your story with the world…or at least with your friends that visit your kitchen!

My mother-in-law would totally love these signs. The whole vintage/distressed/this-has-been-loved-on look is so her style! Is it your style, too?! If it is, you’re in luck :]

  2. There are too many choices to pick just one favorite- I love the laundry sign, strength of my love, whimsical family rules, you are my sunshine (sang this to both my babies)… What a fun, neat company! Thanks so much for the introduction to them.

  3. Great signs!!! Love them all! I think my favorite is the family rules in Worn White with Gray and Red. “You are my Sunshine” is a pretty close second if I had a nursery!

  4. The Laundry sign made me chuckle! My favorite was the In our Home sign. Great way to encourage kids that it is ok to mess up and get back up. Home is the place to do that.

  5. OMG, you are so awesome for doing this today!! All of these vendors are so awesome but this is one of my favorites!!! My favorite is the family rules sign so I would just die to win this! I also love the We Can Do Hard Things sign too!!!!

  6. I love the you are my sunshine sign! I sing that song to my daughter everyday and would love to have that sign in her room :)

  11. OK, I have 2. the f’amily rules by the kids’ is a fave as well as the ‘you are my sunshine’ {my maiden name is Sunshine} :)

  13. My favorite is the Family Rules Sign – Live, Laugh, Love, and Dream. This sign would look great in my den!

  14. I love the Keep Calm and Carry On. I need this to be my motto…I can be rather high strung at times. I have a pretty stressful job…wonder what my co-workers would think of my cube with THAT sign haning in it.? :) I can see it now…

  18. I love the “our nest’ sign. It would look great in our vintage bird themed kitchen! I also love the family rules signs and would love to win one!

  19. As someone with a decidedly sweet tooth, that sign “Stay Calm and Have a Cupcake” speaks to me! What a great site.

    Thanks!

  20. I went to check out what was available and Family Rules was my favorite. Then I come back and see what the giveaway was… Family Rules. Hope I win.

  21. I can’t decide between the Laundry sign and the You Are my Sunshine one. My boys still love me to sing that song so it’s special andit would look great in their hallway.

  22. love the begin. explore. create. shine. Motivational Distressed Wooden Sign! thanks for the chance to win! :)

  23. Wow, this shop is AMAZING!

    I love a lot of the Family Rules signs but my favorite is Version IV. I would hang it in our dining room which is the perfect place for our family to look at them each day while we eat dinner together.

  24. my favorite Family Rules Sign Version IV and the laundry room one mad me laugh hard because the only thing that makes my laundry room fun is my craft desk is there too.

  25. I’ve always wanted a keep calm and carry on sign so if I bought something from her shop-that might be the winner. ;)

  26. Our Grandfather always sang “You are my sunshine” so that would be a great gift for my sister but I also like “We do hard things” on many levels, especially dealing with fostering.

  27. Oh wow, those signs are all fantastic! I especially love the “We can do hard things” and the Thomas Edison quote. So amazing.

  28. Love love love the family rules signs….would just have to decide which version…and color…choices!

  29. wow, so hard to decide! I love the farm fresh signs for the kitchen and the i do sign. oh and the nest sign! Defiantly hearted that shop!

  30. Cute shop! I love the family rules sign, I could totally see it up in my mother-in-law’s house. :) Or I’ll save it for when I have kids.

  31. Love,love,love the family rules signs. I love her work. Our photographer introduced me to the family rules signs.I got so inspired that I had my second graders in school try making a list of their family rules. LOVE IT!

  32. I really loved the Hockey sign she used to have but I don’t see it in the shop anymore. The You are My Sunshine would have to be a close second for me.

  33. LOVE THIS:
    Please Take Responsibility for the Energy You Bring into This Space – Inspired by Oprah – Motivational Distressed Sign

    I was inspired by Oprah’s sign, too. I use that line with my daughter all the time.

  34. I love the playroom rules sign! Might sound silly but I’d love to put that in my sewing room!:)

  35. I love the Favorite “The Laundry Room – Loads and Loads of Fun Large Distressed Sign in Crimson Red with Stone!” It would go perfectly in our red laundry room!

  36. LOVE these signs. So hard to pick just one! We’re re-doing my daughter’s room this fall and the “playroom rules” in buttercup or golden yellow would be fantastic in there :)

  37. Ok I seriously LOVE Barn owl Primitives. I have for a while. t is so hard to choose a favorite. I really like the house rules but also like the Laundry room signs and the You are my sunshine signs. SO precious

  38. I love them all! Of course I love the Family Rules signs but also love the The Laundry Room sign in Tiffany Blue! LOVE!

  39. I was going to say the “You are my sunshine…..” bc we sing that every night to our twins, but then I saw the “Strength of my Love” and I melted :)

  40. I am in LOVE with this shop…added them to my etsy favorites. I am particularly digging the “Keep calm and say I do” sign. My baby sister just got engaged and the wedding stress over money and family issues is already rearing it’s ugly head. I would love to get this sign for her as a way to remember what to focus on when wedding planning stress is at it’s max. :)

  41. I love all the signs! I couldn’t choose a favorite — I especially love the “A Day at the Shore” and “The Greatest Oak.”

  42. I choose Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in Robins Egg Blue, I sing that every night with my daughter as part of our night time routine.

  43. I love BOP – I have a few Holiday Signs for our house!

    I love the cottage rules sign she just created and posted on her facebook page! If I had to choose I would take a combination of all the Family Rules signs. Crossing my fingers and hoping to win!

  44. i love the laundry room typography art! hopefully someday our laundry room will be finished and I could use something like that! also love the come in one.

  45. What a great product! I may have to add the “you are my sunshine” piece to my daughter’s nursery as that’s one of our favorite songs!

  46. I can’t decide which family rules I like better. The one saying to use more syrup or the one that says to dream big?

  47. I love this shop. I, too, just added this to my etsy favorites. My favorite is the you are my sunshine sign. Perfect for my daughters room.

  48. i love the family rules, But the one that touched me was you are my sunshine. my son is almost 13 and that song i sang to him b4 he was born and to this day, still calms him down :)

  49. I love these! My favorite would probably be… “Opportunity…” by T. Edison… but there’s a few that I really love!

  50. First of all…I want to say that your work is incredible. I could hang your signs all over my house. It is so hard to choose a favorite, but I would have to say that it is a tie between the “family rules” and the “in our house”. They are both just beautiful and say so much with a few words. Love them!!!

  51. I love the Come In We’re Open sign, but I don’t own a shop. So practicality wins…I’d go with the Family Rules sign.

  52. I love Barn Owl Primitive signs. My favorite was her family rules sign, but I’m crushin’ on her 4th of July sign now!

  53. I love the you are my sunshine sign! My mom always sang that song to me as a child and now I sing it to my own daughter.

  54. My favorite is the playroom rules sign…it would look great in my son’s playroom! I already have 2 of her signs, they are great!!

  57. I would love to win this sign! The signs are amazing! Totally my style. My fingers are crossed!! :)

  58. I am in love with every single sign she makes. I would probably fall over and die if I won one lol. Every time I browse her things I catch myself picturing just where I would put each and every sign in my home and then I remember that I’m not rich and that would probably be too many signs lol Anyhow, if I had to choose I’d say that I love the family rules but may add a few things of my own and I love the “we do hard things” because we do.. every day. Anyway, good luck to all.
