Our Lists

This is the second year that we have done a Fun List and a Goal List to put on our fridge. It is one of my FAVORITE parts of summer. On the first day of summer, as a family we brainstorm what fun things we want to do during the summer. We usually pick about 10-12 things.


Then we brainstorm what goals we want to accomplish. This year we each picked two things. Since our youngest is a little young to understand goals, I picked for her! I'm sure she would have picked "no whining" as a goal for herself if she could have :) Each person picks a font so that everybody has a unique font.



Last year we did EVERYTHING on our fun list, and accomplished almost all of our goals!! It was so fun to have a daily reminder of the things we wanted to do and accomplish. Each box is 13" x 13". I am offering the FUN LIST or GOAL LIST at half of the normal price because I love it so much I want others to try it! Choose either one for $6 or $12 for both.

New Signs

I did some signs for my brother's dental office a few weeks ago using outdoor vinyl.

Back At It

It was so nice to have the holiday break, free from school, routines, and probably most of all; vinyl :) But it's nice to be back too. I was surprised at the number of orders awaiting my return home - makes me feel loved :). So, I'm back at it, with a big start for the New Year.


Amidst the special orders, I have a few ideas for new vinyl around my house that I've been working on. We hung the guitars with hooks from Lowe's that are meant for shovels, and then added a little vinyl. I absolutely love it. Not only does it make me feel organized, but it makes me smile everytime I see it. I'm working on being more organized this year, with everything having it's own place.

Dinner Choices

It's almost Boutique time again, and I've been busy getting items ready to sell. I think I might have to make one of these for my kitchen!

Labels

I have been using vinyl to make labels for just about everything. I have always wanted one of those palm-held labelers.... and never got around to buying one. But now, I have something better - and it makes the labels bigger. I use labels in our linen closet, where I keep our medicines, sunblocks, etc.

I have also used labels for my food storage. Jeff recently built an awesome can food rotator for me. It is wonderful, but with 3 rows on each level, I needed to label it to help me remember what I was storing.

I also use vinyl to label all of my large plastic bins in the garage. Our garage is a work in progress.... so no photos yet :)

Light Switch Decoration

Are your light switches boring? Add some vinyl directly to the plate or just above them!

I have even seen some people put "Did you think to pray" on the plates in their kid's rooms - what a great reminder!
