I change up my Christmas color scheme every year. Last year was Black & Gold, this year is White & Silver.
I realized my orange Family Rules subway art was going to harsh my Christmas mellow… I needed a temporary replacement.
So! I decided to make another one for Christmas. It doesn’t perfectly match my White & Silver gig, but it’ll be OK.
“Love is what’s in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.”
I love this. It’s attributed to an anonymous 7 year old boy who was asked what love is.
I did this using the same techniques as I did for the Family Rules. I distressed it and put a opalescent wash over it.
Mommy like!
Go over to Tatertots and Jello and see what other people are making.
I am sure someone out there will decorate with orange for Christmas.
What a lovely sentiment. Those 7 years olds know it all don’t they.
Oh! I LOVE it!! LOVE LOVE LOVE.
Want it. You might need to give it to me. Or something. Maybe. 🙂
That is PERFECT!!! What a great explaination to anonymous 7 year old…. also will work perfectly for my 5 & 3 year old. I will steal it! 🙂
Beautifully done!
I love it! I think that shade of blue really compliments silver and white!
I absolutely LOVE that quote!
How was your Halloween party?
OK, I just went back and read about it! Great Party!
Great, something else Vivienne inspired to add to my ever growing to-do list!
It’s beautiful!
Cute! I love it! And what a sweet quote. 🙂
Oh I love your orange sign. But this one is so darn cute too! How funny that I always seem to pick your craft or idea off of Tatertotsandjello’s link party, and there is like 600 of them on there this week! Your stuff always catches my eye.
So pretty…and I love the quote!!!

So cute. What a nice addition to your decor and a nice reminder of what should be our focus-love.
Very nice! I can hardly believe that such a sweet sentiment came from a 7 year old! Kudos to his parents, huh?
Being from Oklahoma and an University of Oklahoma fan (think RED) and NOT a fan of Oklahoma STATE University (think yucky orange) I probably could never have orange in my house. Isn’t that just sad? I have to stay true to my roots and my roots are anti-orange. But WOW do I love the words that appear on that orange!Did you make it up on your own or steal it? And it goes without saying that it just makes me feel anti-creative to see what cool stuff you (and JELLO) can do. But ya know, I’m all about stealing great ideas..
The signs are great! I don’t have the patience for that, but I loved reading about how you did it.
VERY nice. I love the message that it sends AND it’s cute!
Well, that is SO cute! I likey.
Love it!
