Established Signs on Glass Frames

Established Signs on glass with it look so modern and classy. I personally have my establish sign on a glass frame. A lot of cool and different ideas. You can find a lot of different styles with the glass on the internet. I love the glass look, probably cause I'm very modern and up-to-date.

 This plate was part of a wedding gift. I thought I would add it to this post.

Wood Signs 15x23

I made a couple signs for gifts. I absolutely love the grandparents house rules. Very cute and true. Every grandparent should own one. And the other sign fits perfectly for country fans. You can change the singer to anyone. Available on my website.

Nursery/Day Care Vinyl

My Aunt runs a Day Care and wanted something new. She was tried of her old stuff on the walls. She wanted something up-to-date and fun.

She saw this caterpillar on Pinterest from juxtapost.com and wanted it. I think the one on Pinterest was made out of paper. Pretty similar to the picture. Very cute.

She had a piece of paper of the kids names on the table, in front of their diaper, and wanted their names on the walls, because the kids kept pulling the papers off and/or switching the names around.

The ABC's she loved. Originally they were in one big square shape but she decided to spread them all out.

Lastly, she wanted a tree with animals. After a lot of work on the computer I did this cute, simple nursery tree. The tree alone looks very cute and adding the grass, sign, and animals it's even cuter. Check out my website for the caterpillar and Nursery Tree. https://www.etsy.com/shop/OurLittleVinylShoppe

Birch Trees

So I painted our room at my in-laws house a dark green color, Behr Painted Turtle, a couple months ago or so. I really wanted to put something cute in our room but didn't know what. After searching for while, I decided to do some birch trees. I've always loved the look of the birch trees. Of course after getting permission to do something in our room I started to cut away. After using a lot of vinyl and time. I finally put it up last week. It turned out so so cute I did it on the window wall  because that's the first wall you see. But next time I go over there I want to do some more on the other wall that you see. It would just complete the look. We I do I'll update this post. Probably after Christmas sometime. It's about 15 foot x 8.5 foot. 

Road Bike Vinyl

My brother-in-law is into triathlon and that kind of stuff. He recently got a new road bike and wanted some vinyl on the wheels that say IRONMAN on them. Originally, I had a word Ironman and some stuff underneath it but he just wanted the Ironman on so I placed each letter on individually. It took some time but it turned out really good. Not bad for my first road bike vinyl. I'll sell it in my shop in the near future.

Lorax Trees

My mother-in-law is a teacher and has a Dr. Seuss wall in her classroom and thought about doing some trees in her room. I thought that Lorax trees would go perfectly especially with her Lorax quote on the wall. She loved the idea and better yet she loved the actual trees. Very cute. I did three trees. It would be cool and cute for a kids rooms with a lot of the trees. These trees are about 4, 5 and 6 foot. Their pretty good sized.

Picture Frames

I gave my mother-in-law a picture of my son for her birthday with a cute saying "Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart"I made for the frame. He's the first grandson on my husband side of the family. And I gave my father-in-law a picture of my daughter with a different cute saying "The only thing better than having you as Parents is my children having you as Grandparents". I bought the frames at Aaron Brothers and printed the pictures and cut out the vinyl and placed it on the frame. Very cute. I love these frames. I saw some cuter ones with the same shape but I wanted the frames the have an easel. Maybe some day I'll go back for those frames for myself :) 

Scrabble Letter Tiles

The game Scrabble is not my cup of tea. I am the worst speller. Probably why I'm not a fan at playing the game. On the other hand, I love the Scrabble home decor. I've seen huge outdoor games, pillows, pictures with the letters, and letters on walls and shelves. I wanted to create the wall idea for my mother-in-law. Originally I thought of doing just the grand kids but she thought it would be better with everyone's name. I'll have to admit, it turned out cute and better with more people.

First I cut the wood out at 3 x 3 inches. Their about 1/2 thick in depth. Sanding the edges. Don't round the corner. Keep them sharp. I kept them at there natural wood color, but you can paint them any color you like. Black or white would be nice. The game is just a natural wood.

Then I have my vinyl cut out at 2 x 2 inches, Except the "I" it's a little smaller. I cut out every letter for each name. Even though your not going to use all of them but you can constantly switch the letters around if needed.

 I stuck the vinyl on each block with all the grain of wood going upright. You can also seal the vinyl with Mod Podge or leave it like so.

And it turned out darling. A little small, but just what I wanted. Because there are still more grandchildren on the way. Keeping enough room for more names to be added some day. Love it. For me, I would do 5 x 5 blocks, just because I only do my family, and there's only four of us right now. But if you have a huge family then I suggest smaller blocks, unless you have a huge wall to work with. Very cute.

Establishment Tiles

Establishment signs look very homey and nice looking. Just looking at them seems like they're expensive. Haha. At least to me. They do make good gifts. Very personalized. Makes a  great decor to your home. I will constantly keep updated either this post or be posting other styles I see or come up with.

Halloween Plate Decals

I decided this year to do four (4) vinyl decals for plates this year for Halloween. You don't have to use the decals on plates. They can be used for other things as well. I made additional sizes if you want a bigger size for something else. Kept the decals very simple, but still cute. www.ourlittlevinylshoppe.bigcartel.com. Sign up for my newsletter to receive a discount on these decals and future vinyls.

More Baby Sleeping Signs

I love doing and making these little signs. Very creative and unique. The last picture I've already did  "Children" instead of "Baby" in a past post ago. I will post the other signs on the web. I have 4 baby showers (all boys) coming up. I chose the colors for baby boy (but can be use either way) more boyish though. And I tied all the ribbon differently.

Days Until...

 Have I told you how amazing Pinterest and Google are? Lots of great ideas and inspiring ideas. I saw this "Days Until" vinyl idea on Pinterest but the ones I saw were done on chalkboard. Cute idea. I know chalkboard paint, vinyl, and whatever else are in. But you can also use it on glass, like I did. Either way is cute. Chalkboard is cute but it is messy and a pain to work with chalk, in my opinion. Dry Erase is so much easier and cleaner. (I'm a clean freak) Plus you have the option to leave the back out of the frame or put in cute stationary paper or I put fabric. And you can always change it up every month or whatever. Great idea for holidays, celebrations, birthdays, vacations, school, seasons, etc. 

Establishment Sign With Square Monogram

I've seen a lot of different kinds of establishment signs. Especially monograms on tile pieces. I love how simple yet elegant this vinyl looks. Although it's on glass it would look amazing on tile as well. I usually like to use beige with black, more so than white, because beige and black make it more warm and cozy and white and black is to stark and very contrasting. Plus if it's going against the wall, A lot of people have white or some sort of white/ivory/cream color. Some people may like this look but I rather use beige. With the white though, it will look good against a beige/brown wall (Like in the second picture, although it's on the carpet) It still turned out amazing and beautiful. This would have to  be a custom order if your interested. 

Love Rules aka Wedding Gift

Usually for a wedding gift I do an establishment sign, But this time I wanted to do something different. I've seen many different kinds of Love Rules on Google and Pinterest. So I decided to come up with my own combination of love rules for a wedding gift for my cousin. I really like the list I came up with, and I think it's good advice to give to newlyweds and a good reminder. I came up with this list:

say "I love you"

laugh together everyday

be patient & kind with your words

respect each other

kiss good morning, kiss just because, kiss goodnight

hug often

be spontaneous & impulsive

listen to your heart

hold hands every chance you can

always be willing to compromise

never go to bed angry

remember why you fell in love

be the first to say I'm sorry

grow old together

live happily ever after

How I made this:

First, I went to Home Depot and bought some MDF board and had my husband cut it at 16 x 25 inches.

Second, I painted it, both sides, with Glidden's Antique Beige (I bought a sample size, 8 oz., at Home Depot).

Thirdly, I used Brown, Turquoise, and White Vinyl. I cut it out at 15 x 22 (I think) I used different fonts for each rule.

This is what I came up with. I really like what I came up with. Very cute. I want one for myself. Haha. My husband wasn't sure about the white vinyl, he said it was kind of hard to see, but I still like it and I can see it just fine. But you can always change the vinyl colors up. Originally, I was gonna do violet and grey, but I think three colors make it more cute and I just love the color combination. I think pink, brown , and white would be cute too.
