Last week I got to go to one of those vinyl stickers party. It was a lot of fun and they are so many cute things. I have always wanted to make a sign with Gardner on it with families are forever across it. So I was so excited that I was finally going to be able to have it. Well I learned that it was going to cost $30 just for the letters and I wanted to put it on some kind
of cute board. Being the cheap person that I am, I decided that I could do a lot with $30 and I could make my own decorations. Despite the fact that both Terry and I were not well, we took the hour drive and went to Hobby Lobby last weekend (I had a get things for the boys' Halloween costumes). It about killed us both off, but I was able to get a few things to start a couple of projects.
Since I wasn't feeling well and we really couldn't go anywhere, I was stuck in the house for about a week and got antsy. I didn't have energy to clean or really move, but I could sit in one spot and work on something. I made Keyne's Halloween costume and then I made these things to add a little bit of color to the house. They turned out okay, nothing special. I do have some more plans to make a sign that says Gardner and families
are forever, and another plan for some pictures, but that involves painting a wall red and I didn't have enough energy to do that.

If you can't tell, I'm really having fun decorating my house and it's about the only thing that I can think about right now, so I decided to get an area rug to complete my living room, I'm pretty excited about it!

We love the vinyl lettering too! My mom actually found a woman on Ebay who sells phrases and I think she'll do personalized things too! We have several phrases throughout the house and I love them! Let me know and I could find out about this woman for you! But I think you're projects turned out so cute! You are super talented!
I'm jealous! What fun projects. All I can do is go to garage sales and find something to decorate with. Found a perpetual calendar board last week that I'm painting with magnetic paint then chalkboard spray and making a big bulletin board. Don't know where we'll put it.....
