Jonathan, Jonathan, Jonathan! You put a smile and laughter in my day! The web video is “Wowsome”! It’s funny, it’s colorful, and it’s easy to follow! I will be watching weekly! Congratulations getting this off the ground! I may suggest this place mat treatment for my son who just moved out and is looking for a headboard idea in his high rise condo. Holly~

  They’re on my holiday gift list too! I am actually thinking of making a bunch and selling them on the site too, for people who want to pretend they made them.

Jonathan my dear, you are my hero! You are the most genius creative rock star I know. Considering we stood on the sidewalk in front of the tailor when you told me you wanted to do this, I had to say a big huge congratulations for what you have produced here. So well done and I love all the details from your title logo that matches the chair you’re sitting in to your animated graphics to your set to your easy attitude to your adorable goofy ways. Seeing your authentic self shine through is music to my ears. Am so excited to cheer you on! You so win the “I have clearly found my own Internal Groove” tiara!!

Oh my, Mr Fong. You are hilarious – oops, I mean “hairlarious”. I couldn’t stop smiling at Style with a Smile. You are so charming and funny! I also can’t believe how easy that wall is. I thought “Oh, no, I have to measure and line up all those darned placemats”. But, nooooooooooooo; it could not be easier!! You make fab design simple and oh so fun.

I just watched all three videos in a row and smiled throughout. What fun! I’m going to try the placemat wall hangings and think I might add some round photos in a few of them. Looking forward to future videos. Wishing you continued success.

I absolutely love this idea. I have a wall in my basement that is brink and a little difficult to adhere things to. I can’t wait to use this idea there. I am a placemat fanatic (I don’t always like to use them for the table.:) Now I can go to Pier 1 and go crazy. Great episode.
