AGE 3
Dear Mixbook,
My 3-year-old is obsessed with tools. Any ideas how I can decorate his room without actually hanging a saw and a hammer on the wall?
Sincerely,
Hard-as-a-Tack in Texas
Dear Hard-as-a-Tack in Texas,
While it might be fun to see how you would hang a hammer, the danger quotient makes me happy to give you some advice. Take a picture of all those tools your young son loves so much. Use Mixbook’s great, easy-to-manage technology to create a collage of all those sharp and pointy instruments. Then blow it up into a poster we can mount and send out to you. Your young son can enjoy all his favorite tools without any of the worry!
Yours Truly,
Madam Mixbook

AGE 15
Dear Mixbook,
My fifteen-year-old just got a selfie with a certain pop star. She wants to blow it up and frame it, but the budget for that just isn’t there right now. Any advice on how I can placate her?
Sincerely,
Mama of Preteen Drama Queen
Dear Mama of Preteen Drama Queen,
Take the selfie of her pop star and make a dozen copies poster size. We’ll print them up for you at Mixbook lickedy split. Take them home and tape them all over the walls of her room - instant pop star wallpaper. She’ll love it! (and you’ll love the price of keeping her happy.) Happy taping!
Yours Truly,
Madam Mixbook

AGE 28
Dear Mixbook,
I’ve just started a new sneaker company and I’m going to trade shows. I want to blow up some pictures of my sneakers to draw buyers in. Should I mount or frame?
Sincerely,
#Street Cool Sneakers
Dear #Street Cool Sneakers,
Definitely print them poster size because that will be awesomely dramatic and if something happens to one, it’ll be easy to print a new one. As for mount versus frame, what do you have room for in your booth? Mounting will stand up nicely in a booth without the extra bulk of the frame. It’ll also transport easier when you fly to that trade show in Vegas… and New York…. and Tokyo. You can stand a mounted poster on the ground and you can hang it from the back just like a picture frame – you’ve got options for a fraction of the cost and less commitment if you change designs come Spring. Try either a glossy poster or a matte poster. But know that frames will just add glare regarless--so it's best to go with matte posters for framing. Keep on Being Cool!
Yours Truly,

AGE 45
Dear Mixbook,
My son’s soccer team just won State. Any ideas on a gift we can give the coach? We were thinking of something for his office.
Sincerely,
Mighty Mavericks Soccer Dad
Dear Mighty Mavericks Soccer Dad,
Get a group shot and we’ll help you turn it into an amazing poster-sized print. Then have all the boys sign their name or write a little message to the coach on it. Your coach will really treasure the thoughtfulness of the gift and it will be a lasting memory he can cherish in the years when you don’t win State. Go Mavericks!
Yours Truly,
Madam Mixbook
