Mini Bench Makeover :: Turquoise & Paisley

I purchased this little bench at a yard sale about three years ago.  It was the perfect size to sit right in front of my couch.  I don't have a coffee table due to the size of my living room, and I needed a place to set drinks and things like that.  Even then, I knew I wanted to paint it turquoise.  I had the perfect piece of scrap fabric that matched my living room.  Finally, after the long wait and getting around to fixing it up, it is all finished.  Perfect!

"Because of Who You Are" Signs

I made these two signs for a friend of mine that works in the same industry as me.  The quote is actually from a song.  My friend said that her and her daughter sing this song to each other; so I made one for her and one for her daughter.  How sweet? Right?  I think they tured out fabulous & I really like the quote.

Simple piece of wood from Home Depot.  Purchase pre cut, add paint and then adhere your vinyl.  I was thinking about adding a big piece of burlap ribbon for hanging, but I just couldn't decide.  I didn't want it to take away from the words and I am unsure how that might look with my friend's home decor.
