Motto sayings- How many do you have around the house?

Anonymous
We have a poster with "Bread for all, and roses, too."

Does that count?

I like the demotivational ones. But I don't have any.

None, I think they are hokey. The corporate ones especially irritate me. I would never tell anyone that in real life, though. I think you need to compromise with your husband who has been a good sport about them so far.

We just have one:

Jesus Loves You
(It's a shame everyone else thinks you're an asshole).

We have 3.
I also have a sign from NOLA that has words on it.
I have tons of original art too. (I only say that because the PP/snob acts like they are mutually exclusive.)

I think it is cool if you mix it up.

Don't take your H advice on decorating. Ask an interior designer, it will cost you $100 for 1 hour.

His comment is just rude and mean ... get to the bottom of that.

Do refrigerator magnets count?

If not, none. "Inspirational" sayings on the wall is probably my least favorite thing about Joanna Gaines's designs.

I think they're hokey too. But do what you want, right? So long as your husband can tolerate it (tho sounds like he's hit his limit....)

A friend made me a lovely cross stitch with bunnies that says, "Go Fuck Yourself" - does that count?

You think the husband saying "enough already" to 5 different inspirational quotes is rude and mean? You must be an incredibly sensitive person.

I have none, but we don't have much art around anyway (which I think I should work on).

But my office is inundated with those "Be Calm and [insert whatever phrase]" posters. I feel like every third person has one or a mug with a saying incorporating the "be calm" thing. I don't really get the appeal, but to each his own.

Trashy and low class. Educated people form their own philosophies of life and live by them rather than cliches.

An interior designer who charges only $100 an hour would advise you to use those sort of things

Zero. My SIL has them everywhere. She also has the family stick figures on her car. Dried flowers, scented candles, flowery furniture. She has no taste.
