What was
once a relic that could only be found in diners, church basements or outside
school gymnasiums, letter boards can now be found all over social media. Some
say the appeal is in the nostalgia and simplicity. If you passed on the chalkboard
trend due to a lack of artistic ability or even time, you might say the appeal
is in the fact that a letter board is not a chalkboard.
Contrary
to the chalkboard trend, letter boards are all-inclusive, only requiring decent
spelling and a fair amount of cleverness or the ability to search Google (to borrow ideas from someone more witty).
Letter boards are an inexpensive and easy tool for merchandising in-store and on social
media. Simply inserting a letter board next to a cute retail display or scattering
a few chocolates near a letter board with a fun saying and voila you’ve got a trendy
and fun social media post.
Here we’re
sharing 52 of our favorite chocolate-related quotes for your letter boards—enough to
share one a week for the whole year, plus a few bonus quotes for the holidays!
