{Chalkboard Sticker Frame}

A few weeks ago I won a CSN giftcard giveaway from {DavesWife} at The Diary Of Daves Wife (thanks Kristy!) and while scouring the website trying to decide which goodies I wanted to buy, I came across this oval chalkboard sticker frame:


Ooh yeah!  I had to have it and it was only $14.00!
I didn't read (or remember reading) the dimensions of the sticker, so when it came in a large box, I was pleasantly surprised!  Turns out it is approx 28in x 23in.



You wipe the wall spot clean, peel the sticker paper off the back and stick it.

I only wanted the actual oval frame part to go on the wall, not the surrounding square corners (because duh, that would look lame) so I cut it out:


Which means I then have.....

Sweet!

I've mentioned before how small our condo is, so I didn't have very many options of open wall space to put this sticker.
I decided the best place would be right inside the garage door entrance (the only entrance we use) so the Mister and I can leave totally awesome and immature important messages for eachother.


Side note:  Nice placement of the fuse box, builders.
Really?  This is the best place for it in the whole house? Really? 
That's just swell and NOT AT ALL an eyesore.
*sigh*

I guess I could try to paint the panel the same color as the wall.  But, that would require thinking and planning and doing, so... I just covered it with some metal flower magnets and turned it into "art". 
Heh.

This is where the sticker is happily living:


And I love it!

{Hanging Pitchers}

Resim
A few days ago I stumbled upon this post from Becky at Beyond the Picket Fence and it stopped me dead in my tracks. It's been a long time since I've seen something I love SO MUCH!  I've always loved pewter pitchers and creamers but have never been able to figure out how to use them in my decorating. But then I saw this post and knew I had to have my own set of hanging pitchers immediately. So I ventured out with my 2-year-old in tow and hit the local thrift stores on half-price-day. Less than an hour later we came home with five metal pitchers and creamers, along with a grab bag of various floral scraps (I could tell there were a lot of red berries in there...one of my passions in life), all for a total of $15! I put my little one down for her afternoon nap and got to work on my project. By the time she woke up I was done! It was such a fun and easy project. I hanged it in front of a mirror above my mantel (to copy Becky even further), and I love the way it reflects. Pewt...
