LIFE MANIFEST REVIEW

 

 

man·i·fes·to [man-uh-fes-toh]: a public declaration of intentions, opinions, objectives, or motives...

Life Manifestos was born when New York Times bestselling writer Stephen Palmer discovered the Holstee company manifesto.Upon reading it, his first thought was, “That’s really cool. I’d love for my kids to grow up reading that.”
Then a light erupted in his head. Why not write and design dozens of similar manifestos that allow people to proclaim their passion to the world?
Stephen teamed up with his brother Kim to start the company in November of 2011.
The concept is simple: Inspirational manifestos, designed as works of art, that resonate with people who strive for excellence and significance.
The manifestos are your planted flag, your line in the sand, your standard held high.
They are predicated upon our firm belief that words and art can change the world.
As people display these in their homes and offices -- bold proclamations to a jaded and complacent world -- new conversations arise. Principles, ideas, and ideals are considered, discussed, and debated in ways they never would have otherwise.
They poetically and profoundly express the essence of who you are, what you believe, and what you stand for.They are constant reminders to always strive for improvement, follow your bliss, to make a difference.

                        MY REVIEW.
I was excited to receive my personalized Family Manifesto from Life Manifestos. I thought it was really cool. i just wish it had been sealed with plastic or something. i wanted to hang it on our front door but was afraid it would get wet and all messed up. i thought the wall art was really neat. i love that is has our last name on it as well as all the awesome words. i have been asked several time to read it by my girls. almost everytime we have to go somewhere or when we get back home. i have it hanging in the wall by the front door. i am still looking for a frame to put it in. yes i do really like my art from wall manifestos
