Last Minute (again) FREE Halloween Printable / Halloween Decorating Ideas.

This is just a re post of one of the free printables that I designed that I actually still really like (some of them make me sick to my stomach to look at).  Hope you enjoy.

Last year I wrote:

Still adding some last minute touches for Halloween night?  Well you are not alone, to be honest with you I never really stop decorating for the Holidays until the day after.  I love adding last minute touches and looking for last minute deals.  I figure even if I only have it up for a couple of days this year, it’s going to be Halloween again next year. . . right?  Or maybe you need a last minute gift for I dunno. . .Visiting Teaching?  (They sale really great frames at the dollar store that can be spray painted in less than 10 min).

Regardless of what you use it for I hope you enjoy!  And don’t forget the sale on $3.00 5x7 mdf shaped frames ends Sunday at midnight.  For more details read this weeks Monday Morning Madness post.

DIY Shaped Portait Frames Ideas and Tutorials – PART II

First sorry to ya all that the schedule for this weeks blog post has been is a little off. . . I mean seriously no Monday Madness what so ever. . . .what the heck is that all about?  I apologize, summer just might be like that.  Having all the kids home makes things a little hectic and besides I don’t want their memories of summer 2013 to be of their mom sitting in front of the computer 24/7…seriously they are getting old enough that I have to start thinking about these things  (; 

Lucky for you I have anticipated this chaos (at least to some degree) and am slightly prepared.  I do have several post ready to show off to the world that you will hopefully enjoy.  Like this one, Part II in the Frame Painting Ideas and Tutorials series.  Part I was posted last Friday.

Monday Madness – Home Accent Vinyl Decal – ON SALE for 60% off.

 
I am pretty sure I have mentioned this before, but just incase, I LOVE vanilla coke…oh wait sorry we are talking about vinyl.  I love designing vinyl.  I also love decorating with vinyl.  It is such an inexpensive way to add personal touches to your home.  The only trick is to not go over board…you don’t want your walls to look like a book threw up on them.  A saying here or there though can really add to any room. 

{Home Accent Vinyl – Love is Always the Answer}

The vinyl in the picture above was first designed as an option to personalize one of our Dry Erase Calendars (part of the Organize It collection).  Below are a few of the other options we have available.

Stepping Up Frame Gallery *NEW*

Introducing the newest addition to our frame gallery collection – STEP IT UP
You would not believe (or maybe if you have tried something like this you would) how many months it took me to figure out this frame gallery!  The end design looks NOTHING like what I started out with . .  .BUT . . I LOVE IT!!!  Take a peek at our newest frame gallery and see what you think.

Obviously it was designed to go up (or down) a staircase wall.

Preston’s Room Part III–Photo Gallery

A while back I posted Part I of Preston’s room, and now I am going to skip straight ahead to Part III, why you might ask?  Because I am still waiting for the chandelier (yes I am putting a chandelier in the boys room, I think the only time you can get away with something like that is in a nursery) to arrive, so in the meantime we are going to skip ahead.

Pictures to me are MUST in an room, it is what adds the personal touch, plus what Mom doesn’t love pictures of her kids. 

Lucky for me the nursery has this big old blank wall and I knew JUST what I wanted to do with it.



This Frame Gallery took me WEEKS to finish, I kept changing my mind, switching colors, the layouts, and rearranging the patterns, than I had to decide on the pictures, but finally I got it just the way I wanted it.  I LOVE how it turned out.

Here are a few closer looks at some of the frames.

Preston’s {Baby Boy Nursery} Part I

There’s a lot going on in this nursery so instead of over whelming you with picture overload, I’ve decided for a simpler, three part post.  Here’s some teasers for you.
Part III - The Bed, Curtains and Rocking Chair:


Part II -  Photo Collage

A Project with a Personal Touch–Bird Family Sign

Projects are NOT like children.  I do not love them all equally.  As a matter of fact there are some that I down right loath, BUT there are some that I just LOVE. . . like the new Bloom Where You Are Planted Sign.




But, this new Bird Family Sign has a particularly soft spot in my heart.
This is actually one of the projects we offered at the class we taught at the Snap Conference. My friend Jamie from the Crafting Chicks made one and sent me this cute pic of her board on display at her house.  

Decorating For Spring

I seriously wait all year for Taipan and Rodworks and all of the other décor stores to pull out their spring décor.  I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE flowers, birds, greenery, and white, so spring and I get along well.  BUT I don’t just use this décor in the spring.  I decorate my house with things like fake potted tulips, and greenery. . .

Ellie Girl’s Room

We had to play musical rooms to get everyone situated in the right place so the baby could take over the nursery.  We still have a long ways to go, but here’s the beginning stages of Ellie’s room.

Since she’s our only girl and won’t have to share a room we bought Ellie a full bed.  Ryan than added the wanes coating wall behind the bed and we painted the room pink (of course).  I am actually still not sure how I feel about the pink.  LOVE the shade, but it is A LOT of pink.

Baby Boys Room

So these images aren’t the best because they were taken at the wrong time of day, but I was too anxious to wait.  There’s also still a TON of work to do. 

Like the rocking chair needs to be recovered (I’m thinking a dark chocolate, maybe with polka dots?!!!).  Curtains need to be hung (my wonderful MIL is sewing them for me.)
