DIY Family Tree

Happy Friday! I have another quick post for you! Remember my Family Photo Wall I shared with you all a while back…well, I really wanted to make it into a “Family Tree” wall, but I didn’t really want to paint the tree on the wall…but then, while I was browsing around Target one day I say this wall decal. IT’s a tree! It says easy to apply and re-usable, removable, and hey it was only $19.95. I bought it!

It really was easy to apply, and it really was removable, because I moved a few leaves around.

So, here is the finished “Family Tree”……

I really love how it looks and I’m going to add more photos too! So fun and simple!

Good morning Beautiful, Hybrid Bathroom Wall Art!

I have a quick cute and easy project to share today.

I wanted a cute quote above my bathroom mirror. I looked in the craft store and saw this way cute wall decal that said “Goodmorning Beautiful”  I thought that was so prefect for right above the bathroom mirror. But, did I really want to spend $11.99 on a decal…no, not me. So, instead I bought this plain piece of wood/sign blank for $1.99 and made my own!

First I painted the wood, then I antiqued it a bit with some antique gel (which both I already had).

Then I went to the computer and opened up some cute ALphas in Photoshop. I used The Chocolate and Marshmallows Alpha by, Jen Yurko. I resized them to the size I needed, printed them, cut them out, inked the edges with distress ink and mod podged them to the sign. I added a picture hanger to the back of the board and Ta-Da…all done!

So, for $1.99 I made a cute little sign..it could have been free if I had a piece of wood lying around! lol.

Here it is..

Here it is a little closer up. BTY, my bedroom and master bath are teal and brown.

That’s it! A super quick and simple little project!

Happy Crafting!

Old Window Wall Art

Hi! I’m here with another Pinterest Project! This is so fun.

So, I saw on Pinterest this wall art made with an old window.

Goodness it’s soooo cute. I totally followed the tut on the original posters blog. 

I needed to make this for my bedroom! So, I did just that! I called my friend Kathy who makes art with old windows and asked if she had one she was not using…she did! Yea! Thanks Kathy!!

The colors in my bedroom are brown and teal…so those are the colors I used. And of course I made this a Hybrid project by just using my digital scrapbooking stash! I just found some digi papers that I liked and printed them in the sizes I needed for my window. All the papers I used were from the GingerScraps store. I love using my digi supplies like this!

So, here is my window. I also used some wooden knobs I already had, not as cute as the original posters knobs, but still cute. I glued buttons on the end of the knobs to make them a little more jazzy. I am one of those girls that likes to use what I have..not that I don’t like to go out and buy more goodies at the craft store…lol..but it gives me pleasure to use supplies I already have in my craft closet.

So, here is my window hanging right on my bedroom wall.

Now, I just need to make some more fun projects to hang all around it! I’m sure I will find lots of great ideas on Pinterest! LOL!

Follow me on Pinterest HERE if you wanna!

Have a crafty day!
