success!

so. I went to boise to visit my sister....

and it seems like everytime we get together we do a "project"


some vinyl for her back door..... (2009 --i think)


last thanksgiving we made arm bands things (not the official name)
that quarterbacks wear to read the plays.

(we made hers out of socks, plastic and some felt)

this trip we made karate belts.....which turned into karate head thingys (also not the official name)




I found this idea out of a jcpenney catalog (the three wall hangings)--sorry the best picture I could get!!!!

...and since my boy's room was already full..I made some for her boys (2008 i think...it was before i blogged)

and my other nephews room:




 I made this shirt for my nephew....
shirt


and the sign HERE (2010)

in june she came up and made me help her finish her i spy quilt (while mine still sits as squares)


and her kids are the ones that made trash robots with us..

those are two of her boys....and her foot...


I shared her cute bathroom  HERE

and this trip she wanted some vinyl words on her son's wall...

so her wish is my command....
you can check the how to HERE

now...for the record...she likes to pretend like she's not crafty...

but look at her cute son's room that she did
ALL BY HERSELF:

    Oh I shouldn't have read this post...I am overwhelmed with the desire to vinyl everything in my house!!! Right now I only have one thing (that I made, 2 store bought ones pre-silhouette owning) but I want to put it everywhere. SO I can't even allow myself to put it anywhere else. I am scared that every wall will have a detailed description of the area, or a inspirational or stupid saying, etc. I don't want to feel like I live in a book...but I WANT VINYL EVERYWHERE!!!! Please-no more vinyl inspiration. I need NO MORE!!! (unless it's more awesomeness like the "succeed" thing : ) HAHAHA LOVE! Oh and I also want to paint the stripe detail she has in her bathroom. Maybe that would make me like the color I choose for the guest/kid bathroom. Maybe? Plus...what's one more project added to the list : ) HAHA!!!

    I grew up about an hour away (on the Oregon side) from Boise. What a great area!

    I have one boy... ahem... man in my house and don't want to sit on the seat... luckily I have my OWN where I don't have to worry about it! :) What a great idea to remind her son to "SUCCEED" I like it!!

    The kids are so funny and cute in their karate headband things! I love all the room decor, it's some inspiration I'll have to think about for a while.
