My friend, who is a decorating genius, asked me to design these the book page posters for her. When I saw the quotes she picked out I about melted. Such beautiful quotes to have in your home.
Book Page Art Prints are designed to look like a page from an old book, and these ones are extra special because they are oversized!
These prints are 24″ x 36″ and look stunning is a wood frame!
Get the frames at Hobby Lobby, when they are on sale (of course!)
I designed 3 different options. You can use 1, 2, or 3 of them depending on how big of a wall you’re decorating!
Quote #1 by Mother Teresa
She said, “People are often unreasonable, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies. Succeed anyway. What you spend years building someone can destroy overnight. Build anyway. If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway. If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway. For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.”
[Love this? Pin it for later!]
Quote #2 by Marjorie Hinckley
She said, “I don’t want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for
Quote #3 by Theodore Roosevelt
He said, “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Where Can I Print These Oversized Prints?
- Staples (Recommended)
- Persnickety Prints (Gorgeous but expensive)
- Local Printer – Loved the quality but not I understand this isn’t helpful for anyone outside of Utah – So call around to local printers and see what they offer.
- Costco – Looks like you get 2 posters for $24! I haven’t printed these specific posters at Costco but everything at Costco seems to be superior quality!
A Few More Printing Tips:
- Different printers prefer different file types. I have included the PDF as well as
the . JPG in the download files. - If you are going to frame the poster you don’t need to spend a ton of money on thick heavy paper. You won’t be able to tell under the glass.
thank u i love things like this i put them on my bathroom mirror so my family reads them everyday!!!
I am having trouble finding these on your Etsy site. Any suggestions?
Thank you so much for sharing so many wonderful designs.
Your friend asked you to do the Mother Teresa quote. It is a wonderful quote. However, the quote taken from the wall in her room in her children’s home was not her writing. In his book, Jesus Did It Anyway, The Paradoxical Commandments for Christians, Kent M. Keith claims he is the originator and author and that Mother Teresa had his quote on her wall. Maybe worth a little research.
Again, thank you for sharing your talent.
