Tuesday Tutorial - Picture Frame Makeover



I have had this white picture frame hanging on the wall in my daughters room for a few months now, not quite sure what to do with it.


I have a bunch of scrapbook paper lying around, and of course vinyl, so I decided to make a monogramed piece of artwork.


I inserted my scrapbook paper into the frame and cut my vinyl.


I placed the vinyl on the glass (on the outside)


By placing the vinyl on the outside of the glass it give the piece a more 3 dimensional feel.


I loved the way it turned out, and the colors!

Monday's Word - Peacock

The coloring of peacocks kind of remind me of this time of year. Summer weather is drawing near an end. The brights of spring are fading as we prepare for the winter months ahead. The cool blues and green accented by the warm orange and yellows.

A beautiful color scheme for a wedding:


Thank you to wedshare for this post.


A great palette for a bedroom:

New Vinyl Wall Art Decal Designs!

This design derived from a giveaway we did awhile back, they were some random pieces I had sitting in the studio that I grouped together, I had a great response so I decided to make it a decal set in our shop - I call it Whimsical Garden:


The next is mix of two of our popular designs. One of our trees and the 'flowers' for the tree were inspired by our 'swirl poppies' decal - Poppy Swirl Tree:

And one for the home - Damask Welcome:

Tuesday Tutorial - Mail and Key Box

I don't have a before picture of this box, but it was blue.
My mom bought it for me when I was in high school, and it is one of those silly pieces of decor that I took with me all throughout college and have had with us in every house since we have been married. I decided after I painted my kitchen chairs black that I could finally put this piece to work if I painted it to match:


and then came the vinyl - and now I love it again! Good thing I held on to it :)

Tuesday Tutorial - Embellishing a Hutch

Today's Tutorial is to give you inspiration for dressing up a piece of furniture with vinyl.

I have chosen a hutch/armoire as my furniture of choice for the day. - Probably because I have been looking for the perfect hutch at the perfect price for months now :) I have decided it doesn't exist.

Add a dainty embellishment to a plain front:


Or a simple touch to the outside glass:



Make a bold statement:


Or add some cuteness to the inside:
