Baby It's Cold Outside Wall Hanging

This month's Pinterest challenge was all about New Years and Winter.  I struggled for awhile to find a project idea.  I went searching on Pinterest for winter home décor, winter crafts, winter recipes, etc.   I loved the look of this winter living room/mantle scape and thought I could make a similar looking sign. 


Then I remembered I had this sign (that I bought at Michael's one day) in my collection of crafting supplies and I thought it would be perfect to use.



I had already downloaded a free SVG file when I was working on Christmas gifts (using this pin) and thought it would be perfect with an all white color scheme (and I removed the antlers). 

I sized the file to fit my sign and added in a few additional snowflakes to fill in empty spots.  I cut it out using my Cricut, some white iron-on vinyl, and my extra long cutting mat. 


I weeded my design and used my iron to iron the design onto the chalkboard.  It did get really hot quite fast so I had to work quickly. 





I just love how it turned out!

      I hadn't planned on ironing it on either but I had run out of plain white sticky back vinyl so I thought I'd give it a try.

    Oh, this is so pretty! One of my friends is a teacher and she invested in a Cricut so that she could use it to decorate her classroom bulletin board. Her creations are so beautiful. Have a very Blessed and beautiful Christmas! PS Sorry for the delete above--spelling error I caught too late

    That is just adorable! I've been thinking about getting a Cricut since I've had the crafting bug lately. I decided to see if its temporary or if it's going to stick.

    What a lot of fun! I haven't tried HTV on chalkboard, but I don't know why it wouldn't work, I've seen people put it on wood. The end result is wonderful :) Stay warm!

      How did you iron it onto the board? Did you use an actual iron? Or the Cricut iron?

    3. Joanne December 18, 2020 at 4:47 PM

      I use an actual iron as I have not bothered investing in the Cricut one yet.

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mainly through

Dollar Store Candy Cane Wreath

Today I am linking up with some fellow bloggers for a Dollar Store craft challenge.  I don't often participate in these challenges since I try to stay away from our local Dollar Stores; I find they can be quite dangerous for me!  I knew this was the perfect time to find some inexpensive holiday decorations though and I just LOVE how my wreath turned out!  I hope you stop by and see what the other hosts are sharing. Meet this month's co-hosts! Across the Blvd | Purple Hues & Me This Autoimmune Life | Our Unschooling Journey Domestic Deadline | Sew Crafty Crochet Stone Cottage Adventures | Sum of Their Stories | Two Chicks & a Mom I bought the candy cane wreath base and a few rolls of mesh (not knowing how many I'd need I bought waaay to many; I only ended up using one white roll and one red roll.

Things That Make Me Laugh

Image
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my boys were youn
