It's a beautiful morning and I am sitting on the back porch enjoying the sun and breezes we get here. I love that I can sit out here and work to the sound of the birds, the waterfall and the chimes - such sweet music to work with - if we could just have it year round. Ahh, yes... Today, I thought I would share the Beach House sign I made for our Spring/Summer mantel with you. I am all about keeping things as simple as I can so I used Chalk Couture's chalk paste and transfer to make a sign that would I would be able to use through both seasons.
Summer has officially found its way to the beach. Sunny blue skies, ocean breezes, and hot, hot temps. That means it's time for me to change our Spring mantel to a Summer mantel. I love changing my decor but, I want it to be as easy and quick as I can make it. So, switching the Spring mantel over just took a couple of changes and it was done in less than 30 minutes. This is how it looks for summer.
If you have been following me for a while you have noticed how I have become completely obsessed with Chalk Couture's transfers, chalk paste, and couture inks. I mean TOTALLY in love with this new quick and easy way to craft beautiful home decor and crafts. And, by easy, I'm saying in just minutes you can have a finished project done and ready to display or give away. So, when Chalk Couture announced it's new monthly subscription box I knew I had to share it with you all.
It's hard to believe but, Valentine's Day is next week - where has this new year flown to already. I know we have had a very busy beginning and am hoping it slows down a bit so I can do more sharing here. But, for today I thought I would share our Valentine mantel with you all.
I'm just jumping on to share a bit of fun with you today. It's such a chilly, grey, rainy day here at the beach and on days like this, I would love to grab a cup of coffee, wrap up in a warm blanket and veg out on the sofa watching Netflix or reading a great book. But, since I discovered Chalk Couture I find myself wanting to play with all the fun stuff they have.
Check out this adorable little piece I made for my great granddaughter's room. I love how it turned out - and that I am able to customize each piece for the person I am making it for.
Usually, in January I go into a depressive funk - all the excitement of the holidays has passed and let's face it January can be quite a dreary month weather wise also. It takes me forever to get into the mojo of doing something fun. But, this year with Chalk Couture I am not having that particular problem. Oh, my Christmas tree and all the decor is still up and I have no thoughts of taking them down anytime soon but, I am having such fun playing with all the great Chalk Couture products I have.
It's so easy to make a project in just minutes and what satisfaction of having it turn out looking like you spent hours doing it. No Pinterest fails here. Can I say I am in love with the ease and beauty of this method of crafting?
