Names/Girls bedroom Vinyl Decor

My friend recently redid her twin girls' bedroom. She got her inspiration from Pottery Barn and recruited me to help out with some of the vinyl.
Here is the finished product. I did the names for her and she already had the vinyl birds. But I can do similar birds if you are interested. The font was a basic serif font (Georgia). It's done on Matte White Vinyl.

Here's a closer look.


So fun and so classic!

Glass Blocks/Wedding Center Piece Decorations

A couple months back I was able to do some vinyl for my husband's cousin that was getting married. For the table center pieces at the reception they had bought some glass blocks. You can find these at most craft stores with large holes already in place or you can also buy them from your local hardware store and cut the holes yourself. (But that route is slightly more difficult.) Anyway, they took the engagement pictures of the happy couple and put them inside the glass blocks. On the outside they placed vinyl with popular phrases about love on them on one side. On the other side were one to three word phrases in the bottom corner again relating to love.

The blocks turned out very nicely. I used two different fonts to give the phrases some contrast and a more "artsy" look. I used the fonts Trajan and Corinthia. I think those two fonts are a great contrast with on another.

Anyway, here are the pictures. Click on them to get a closer glimpse.
