his and hers.....or her & him....

Friday night thumb tack art fun...thumbs are sore. Printed out words in font and taped onto wall, thumb-tacked over the template. (I had to start using a hammer :)

which way to the restroom...

I've been wanting to do something for the bathroom door forever. A cute vintage restroom sign, unisex restroom sign from hardware store, stenciling, vinyl letters but I couldn't decide on anything. Finally got around to doing this:

Materials:
-Already had can of oops paint in grey (free)
-Little man/woman wood cutouts from Michael's $1.99 each plus 15% total coupon (~3.50)
-Frame I already had, took off glass/backing (free)
- Leftover white spraypaint I already had (free)
-3M command strips x8 (~$6.00 with Michael's coupon)

My steps
-Eyeballed center and positioning
-Had my man hold up
-Outlined inner rim of frame with pencil
-Handed painted with the grey
-Stick em all up with the 3M command strips. Super easy
-NOTE: Technically supposed to let paint dry for several days before hanging 3M strips which I also recommend at least a day as the strips will fall off.
