Signs, Signs, Everywhere There’s Signs

I’m so glad I’ve gotten more comfortable using my new Cricut machine.  I still haven’t mastered the vinyl cutting yet – but I have did purchase vinyl transfer tape today – so I plan to have new projects posted very soon!!  In the mean time, I’ve been working with scrapbook paper and Elmer’s glue.  It’s just so easy, I can’t stop thinking of more ideas for signs.  I’m visiting my parents this weekend so will have a new load of wood to experiment with.
Here are a few more signs that I’ve created since the “Beach” one.

This Bakery sign would look so cute in a kitchen with cookie cutters surrounding it and lacey doily's.

And the Grocery sign – something every farm kitchen needs!!

And my very favorite…the Vintage Market.  I embellished it with fabric roses.  I just learned to make them.  They are super easy, you just have to play around with fabric strips and your glue gun – search for a tutorial on youtube.  Love, love, love how this sign turned out – so shabby chic!

I have them for sale in my antique / vintage spaces…will let you know how they do.

This is on my list as a “next project” once I get the blocks ready – I think these are just so cute!!
