Yup! I'm gonna toot my own horn. I accomplished something I've wanted to do for a very long time, but wasn't sure if I could had the patience to complete it. One of my favorite bloggers is My Pink Life. I don't personally know her, but I love her style. She gave a tutorial on how she makes her signs and it didn't look like you had to have an art degree too hard.
First thing I needed to do was find a "cool" old door or piece of wood. I saw a door at an antique store, but it was $25 and you had to have cash (which I rarely do). So, I let it stay there and asked hubby if that was a good price when I got home. We were headed to IL that next week so it was set on the back burner. While we were there hubs and his brother went to work on "junk" at their Granny's house. I decided I needed to go exploring in their barn/shed. I brought home several treasures (FREE) and one of them was an old door. YAY!
One would think after I scored the door I'd hop right on the project. One would think...
Anyhoo, I finally sat down and got 'r done! :)
It eventually is going to go in our bedroom. Wonder how long it'll take to sprout legs and walk itself in there? ;)
BTW...this is my 500th post. Who knew I had so much randomness to share?!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!
You did a good job. You can make me one, only with a different quote. :)
Ya know I've been hankering to do that very thing! I even bought me some carbon paper....and it's still sitting right where I parked it, unopened. LOVE that blog - have always been a fan of her style, and her signs. Yours turned out super cute, what a great old door you found!!! I guess that's what's holding me up at this point, I still need to find something to paint on :)
Oh, I love it love it love it! Pretty sure I'm gonna have to have one of those...and you know how artistic I am! ;0 And congrats on your 500th post!!! Good grief...I didn't know you were so gabby...hehe.
O wow - I adore this!!! Looks so good!

Jenny, I love this! I'm gonna go check out her place--been thinking about some signs/sayings to use in our house so this should be very inspirational.Thanks for sharing.
