My recent discovery of Minted (thanks to Texas Women Bloggers) has inspired me to add some quality family tree art to my home decor this year! One of my first picks from their website is “Me Defined” by Frooted Design. This art print allows me to give meaning to who I am as daughter, grand-daughter, and great-granddaughter for both sides of my family tree. Tanya Lee is the designer behind Frooted Design and when she said in her personal bio, ” . . . that God is the first and best creative artist in the universe,” I knew right away this artist and her print would definitely be apart of my decor!
It is no secret how much I like info-graphics and enjoy sharing those relevant to genealogy every chance I get! So wouldn’t it be cool to have an art print of my family’s genealogical data done info-graphic style? You bet it would! That’s why “By the Numbers” by Kristen Smith is a “must have” for my collection as well!
I don’t believe my family tree art collection would be complete without a vintage print of my family pedigree. That’s why “Our Vintage Family” by GeekInk Design is on my shopping list too!
What makes Minted so unique? According to their website, they are —
… a global community of independent graphic designers and an online store that prints and sells the best of their designs in the form of paper goods.”
With regards to their designs —
Minted holds monthly design challenges for stationery, invitations, calendars, and other categories and all graphic designers are invited to enter. The Minted community selects the best designs in a highly competitive process, which gives us a top selection of the freshest, finest cards in the world. Winning designers earn cash prizes, a place in the Minted collection, and commissions on all sales of their designs.”
I’m sure I could find family history art prints a lot cheaper somewhere else. But all of the designs I’ve chosen are done on 100% cotton rag paper, museum quality archival pigment print which means these prints are an investment and a personal celebration of my family that will last a very long time.
What I like most about MINTED, is their commitment —
We stand behind our products with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

This is beautiful. It gives a new meaning to genealogy as “both art and science.” There is a world of difference and transformation between the information bits as we uncover them and this kind of elegant display. A good present!

Those prints are very creative. In fact, I think the whole MINTED concept – a combined social and commerce community – is creative! You know Shelley I can certainly see you apart of their Photographer Program. You should check it out – http://www.minted.com/photographer – when you have a chance!
