| Claff's pieces are substantial, frame-worthy works of art! |
Jennifer McLaimtaig is one talented
photographer, so I was delighted when she offered to let me choose
some of her products to review. Her website, Claffs.com provides
“grace words and resources to encourage family life.” Perusing
her site, her images of children and family are so poignant, they
actually brought tears to this mom's eyes. Most of them are
accompanied by quotes from the Bible and there, my friends, was where
I was momentarily stumped: I am not a particularly religious person
(no offense to those who are). Would this watered-down Unitarian
find anything she liked?
Fortunately for me, there is plenty of
wisdom here that is not Scripture-based and it touched me.

| I just CAN'T relegate these pieces to the fridge! |
Claff's contains some lovely cards, photographs, magnets, and
posters that are patriotic (quoting from the Star Spangled Banner),
self-affirming, and comforting for even the most secular visitor.
The
captions cue us to be present for our children (meaning, to me,
that I should put down my blasted cellphone and pay attention to my
kids). They admonish us to “eat well, move well.”
In other
words, this website provides inspiration everyone can relate to.
My prints arrived wrapped beautifully
tied with bow and even though they were meant to be hung on the
refrigerator, I couldn't bear to do so! I don't stare at my
refrigerator (IN, yes, AT, no), so I was determined to find other
places for them. They deserved more than just a glance in the
kitchen. This art is frame-worthy and flexible decor As I speak, one print adheres to the brass fireplace grill in
my living room (I'll remove the item before I light a fire). The
other is propped up on my dresser as a reminder that taking care of
myself is not selfish. I look at that one when I first wake up and
just before I retire for the night.

Claff's products would make perfect
Easter, Passover, Mother's Day, and just “I appreciate you”
gifts.
The images are lush, the words well-chosen. Whether you're
religious or not, you'll find very special wisdom at Claffs.com.
Same Disclosure: I was compensated with merchandise so I could write this review, but it is an honest assessment of the materials.
