Summer Sunday's

I like to take pictures of the kids before church to capture them at their "Sunday Best".

Grandmas' fashion statements......

My grandma's give me quite the accessories. Julie gave me the flower and Jannet gave me the bracelet. But I am so cute, I can make anything look good....

Subway Art HOW TO

Just for you Becky...

I outlined how I wanted this project to look on a word document. I just kept trying different fonts and layouts.


I took an old piece of plywood and cut it to size and painted it the color I wanted the letters to be.


Here in England, vinyl lettering is harder to come by, and I didn't have the patience to wait to order any from the states. I bought regular sticky letters from our local car supply place. I laid them out to make sure I liked the look. The guys at the store were really nice to help me find all the letters and even suggested getting the bigger letters for DELUCA.


Then, I made lines, obviously not particularly straight, and put the letters on the board. About five coats of spray paint later, I peeled off the letters and VIOLA!! this is what I got.

Cannot figure out how to flip this image. Again, my IT guy is across the ocean. The boys, and I must admit, myself, have been having a hard time with some basic values, so I wanted a reminder in the house. I wrote our last name down the middle and found words that I wanted us to daily strive for. It turned out pretty great, except if you look closely, I cannot follow a straight line.
