Staples (store)

Hi kids!

You may remember last week I was asking for suggestions on materials to use for lettering to incorporate into my boat and mapping work. Jess has pointed me in the direction of a store called STAPLES over there in NY, on Union Square.
She has suggested I look at pre-mdae vinyl lettering, as it takes out the hassle of cutting the letters myself.
I was wondering if any of you go to this Staples store, or go past/near it in your travels?
If you do...do you think you could possibly pop in and check out how much their biggest pre-made vinyl lettering is? Pretty please?

The word I will be displaying is 'provenance' (the beginning of ones origins). So that would make the letters I am looking for:
P = 1
R = 1
O = 1
V = 1
E = 2
N = 2
A = 1
C = 1

I realise I'll be in NY myself next Tuesday but I really need to know before I leave whether I can get the letters there or if I need to make them here then bring them over with me.

I really appreciate your help on this. And with the horizons, of course. The photos are all fantastic!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

you can buy vinyl lettering at either staples or at pearl art supplies. probably a bunch of other stores too, but those are the biggies. they both have websites you can check out from there to scout sizes and prices....

What would I do without you?
It looks like Staples is the way to go.
Thank you Amy!
