I am a MOM on a mission! If I do not accomplish my mission then I will fail as a Mom!!
Yea Right who am I kidding?!? Seriously though, I am on a mission to redo Ms. Em's room. The last major update we had on it was her new bed back in August of last year! Hmm I have been totally slacking!!
If you happen to follow me on Pinterest then you know that I am always on the lookout for colorful pieces to add to Ms. Em's room. We have a few larger projects that we will be working on soon but I stumbled across something this weekend that I knew I had to go ahead and do.
I have always loved seeing my kids names on things. I am sure it stems from the fact that my own name is never on anything unless it is a custom made piece due to it's crazy spelling(love you Mom!) I also have a major love of letters, any kind of letters will do as I am not picky at all! This time I did find all the same style letters in Ms. Em's name so I knew I had to get them. I also knew that I wanted to make some sort of hanging sign and this is what I came up with.
Plain ole street sign letters(no I did not steal them!!)
Pick out some pretty papers.
Trim to fit and ink the edges.
Stack of letters and finished paper before the mod-podge was pulled out.
Add some ribbon and WaaaLaaa you have a Name Sign!!
I tied a knot in the ribbon and just hung it over the top of her bed.
It may not stay here but for now she likes it :) and I LOVE it!!
Is it crazy that I like seeing her name so much? I happen to think that it is cool to see your name on things.
Is your name easy to find on items at the gift shop? Do you have lots of pens, mugs, license plates for your 10-speed bike or are you all sad and nameless too? (laughing -- kinda)
Friday we are starting on one of the bigger projects for her room and I couldn't be more excited about it! Can't wait to share it!
