Count Your Blessings

Since November is the month of Thanksgiving, I thought it was appropriate to post this vinyl project. I think that in the whirl of being a mom & coordinating all of our family's activities, I get so busy that I forget that the best things in life are not "things," but the family I live with everyday.

My friend put this above her kitchen table. It's her way of reminding herself that what we do as moms is important. Above my kitchen table I have, "Laughter is our favorite recipe." It's what my parents are quoted saying when a friend of theirs wrote a cookbook. It reminds me of the dinnertimes of my childhood and how much we all need to laugh and create good memories together.

Kitchen Project Idea

Want a fun way to "spice" up your kitchen? (Yes, pun was intended.) Try placing a food related phrase or quote on your walls. Since our vinyl is removable, you can always change your mind on what you want it to say.

My tip for the day is this. Since vinyl is a one-time application, try placing your vinyl on the wall (backing paper still attached) and tape it there. Move it around to different locations to see if one appeals to you more than another. Here you see the vinyl on the overhang between the family room and breakfast nook as well as above the patio door.
