This wordle thing is SO COOL. It's crazy ....
It is a website where you enter in a bunch of words, any words you want, and then the website creates this fantastically cool piece of custom art work for you to display, or share with friends. Oh my, it is a tad difficult to explain ....
For me the story begins with Iva & Stephen's bedroom... Not as sordid as it sounds. They were gracious enough to let my family stay at their home while they were out of town and we were visiting NYC. They had a super funky piece of word art hanging on their wall. I recently remembered it and set out on the net to try to find out where they got this, and was beyond thrilled to find out it was generated by simple free program available to us all.
This is an example of what you can do:
I don't have any major tips to share as I'm entirely new to this, so we will all be fumbling through it together. However, in my preliminary perusal I have found most of the things are customizable (reshuffling, colors, fonts, size of fonts, etc), therefore be sure to play around. I found the FAQ quite helpful, as some of the functions are not intuitive.

For starters you could use words related to things you are grateful for. We all sometimes need some reminding. We all also need some fun and easy creativity in our lives.
Enjoy. I know I will.
