Keep calm I know where did it come from!

I guess every of you already has seen this " Keep calm and ..." pictures. They are everywhere! I felt quite curious today  about what was that and where did it came from. So I just went into Wikipedia and started searching. I found out that the originals where posters that the British government made in 1939, at the beginning of the Second World War to keep a high moral in the population. It wasn't really famous and it was never used. In 2000 it was rediscovered and used to decorate all kinds of products (T-shirts, cups, notebooks...)

    Isn't it interesting?
   So here you have some of my favorite ones and maybe (but not today, I'm way to tired right now) I will do                       my own one.




You may have noticed some changes in the right part of the blog. I've included more webs in the "En familia" part. So feel free of passing by, especially if you are interested in art and literature.
The other change is the big Blogloving logo. Yes I am in blogloving now! So if you are there too just let me know and I will follow you.
