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 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.
