Fun with vinyl

I'm still playing with my Silhouette.  Such a great weekend to get a fun surprise!  I saw this on someone's blog but honestly I have no idea who's because I didn't have any idea I could ever make one.  I loved it and thought it would be the perfect first project.  It seemed easy enough, but I had a little bit of trouble just finding my way around the machine.  Third time was a charm and I love it!
 It looks nice, huh?  I painted the pole today as well. I want to add a finial to the top because a little bird uses it as his hang out place everyday and you know what that means!  A mess!!!
I want to plant some flowers at the base also, maybe next spring! Looking for some more projects.  There are only 500 pages of designs to look at!
I had to take a picture and share the sky tonight, gorgeous!!!

  1. Thanks for stopping by my blog, such sweet comments!!! I'm glad others can relate, then I know I'm not the only one. I totally relate, I have more stuff than space and more ideas than time. My poor hubs may have stage an intervention. I just got a cricut and have gone through nearly an entire roll of vinyl just playing!!!

  3. Love it! Looks so professional. I'm dreaming of what can be done cutting material and applying to the easy to come by lampshades.

    I wish I could recall the site, but I saw phrases applied to stairs in different fonts that was lovely. One of my dream projects.

  5. Now that is some stylin' mailbox! Gorgeous. When I was on the farm mine certainly never looked like that. They always looked like a crumpled up chip bag...
