Craft room vinyl decor



I am back into to the swing of things after my little holiday break. Today's project is something I made for the Bitten By the Bug 2 challenge. This week's challenge called for you to scrap your hobby. Well, to be honest I did not do exactly that. I have been decorating parts of my house with vinyl and wanted to add some to my craft room. I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to  cut some vinyl with my cricut. 

This word art was designed by me and inspired by the phrase 'Haters gonna hate'. I think this is so funny that it had to go in my craft room. 

To make it I used the Nate's ABC's cartridge and the Calligraphy Collection cartridge. The vinyl used is from Provo Craft and made specifically to use with your cricut machine. 





Now the first part of the post is a project that I made and cut with my cricut. I have also included a few other vinyl projects that I have purchased through Uppercase Living. The links for each of these vinyl expressions are included under each photo.



This one is above cabinets in my kitchen. Yum

I have an Airedale terrier that I just adore. I put this in the kitchen above her dog bowl. Dog Hair

This bit of vinyl with the cutest saying ever, is in my downstairs powder room. I could not love this more! Wash your hands



I put this one in my mudroom. Sometimes you just need a reminder. Choose To Be Happy






This week's prize is the Wild Card 2 cartridge!! The winner will be announced on Sunday the 12th.

These are awesome. I especially love the laundry sign - love that song and certainly never thought about clothing when hearing it. :-)
I think I need to take my 'one little word' THRIVE, and make a Choose to Thrive vinyl for my wall.

TeresaK said...

I just love these vinyl's - and that they are ready to go! The laundry room is one of my fav's!
Thanks!

I love the walls of your house - especially the one about the dog - we have a yellow lab, and that is so true - we find white hair everywhere!

I like your use of vinyl. Especially like the whimsy in some of the phrases. I can relate to the Dog one because our dog sheds and i sweep alot. Like the laundry phrase.
