Glass Jars and more chalkboard vinyl labels

I bought these awesome jars at downeast, but they had been glass etched, and monogrammed. Now I could have just turned them around so the monogrammed side was facing the back, but I think it would have bugged me too much. So, more chalkboard vinyl labels! YAY!

They have GREAT potential! They were $10, $5, and $2.50

A little cleaning and some nice crisp white bathroom supplies, and cute chalkboard vinyl labels, and ...

TA DAAA!

I really love them (NO natural light in the bathroom=less than ideal photos, but you get the idea :)

I love how they all look together, so clean, and uniform. Sigh...

Aaaand, I also bought this jar at Walmart (UNDER $7!!!) and put my Oxi clean it it, and spray painted a tin rectangle to put dryer sheets in, and put them all in a basket I got at the DI. (Also no light in the laundry room, so I took these in the bedroom, but you get the idea.)

I also want to put a place in the basket for change and pocket treasures, and maybe even a trash can to keep dryer lint...

Nice.

HERE are more of my chalkboard vinyl labels...in the kitchen :)

Above the Kitchen Cabinets...YUM

I have to be honest, I have anxiety about what to put above the kitchen cabinets. People do SUCH cute things up there, but mine is small-ish, and I do NOT feel like arranging stuff like little knick knacks is a strength of mine, and neither is buying them.

At Hobby Lobby, these ultra thick (3 layers) chipboard letters were on sale 1/2 price, making them $1 each. So I bought letters to spell "YUM"...I've seen people do "EAT" a lot before, but I like this little different twist...

I looked everywhere for some BOLD scrapbook paper to modge podge onto the letters, but everything was too small of a print, and not quite the right color. So, after I sprayed the letters white, I cut out some chevrons, quatrefoils, and dots onto freezer paper with my cricut and sort of ironed them onto the chipboard {a word of advice, just a quick press will do the trick, any more than that and it will be hard to peel the paper off of the chipboard...but without a good press, the paint will bleed} After I ironed down the freezer paper, I did 2 VERY LIGHT coats of Krylons "Ocean Breeze" Spray paint. Then I peeled off the paper, and VOILA!!! YUM!

I love it! In this photo, the letters are balancing on the cabinet moulding...gonna have to come up with a more permanent fix for that, I was just so excited to take a picture though! :) Now I need some greenery, vase/pot, plate, who knows! Any suggestions?!

{I didn't take a picture of the whole kitchen because it's not clean...just keepin it real...}

Do you have space for cutesy stuff above your cabinet? What do you do with it?!

Chalkboard Labels

I cut out some chalkboard vinyl into different sized bracket tags with my cricut and "Sure Cuts A Lot", and I have been a labeling FOOL! It's SO fun, and they look SO cute!!!

{I bought the chalkboard vinyl from Roberts, and used a 40% off coupon. Also I bought "Bistro Chalk Markers from Hobby Lobby, it was $10 for a set of four colors...I didn't want four colors, but using my 40% off coupon was cheaper than ordering the one white one online}

Yes, that is PiNK salt :) Himalayan Sea Salt to be exact, supposed to be better for you, the hubbs insists on it :) I call it princess salt...

Lookit how cute! All lined up so neatly

I love these containers {From the container store, LOVE that place}

And I LOVE the way they look alltogether, Love the way the white stands out, much better than actual chalk. And if I ever want to switch things around, the chalk marker wipes off with water!

I need to get a few more containers, but I am LOVING IT!!! What do you think?

Oh, and also, I finally put up my Welcome Vinyl on the front door, I LOVE IT SO MUCH! It makes me so happy, that little bird just tickles my fancy, every time I look at it, I just LOVE it. So...welcoming hahaha...

{Bought the sign on GroopDealz (like groupon, for crafty stuff, if you don't subscribe, you totally should, and on that note, you should also sign up for "Pick Your Plum" I look forward to their stuff every morning) I have not received any compensation from GroopDealz or Pick Your Plum, I just LOVE them!}

Sigh. I love it. Slowly but surely this house is becoming our HOME...

Stay tuned for more labeling madness lol!!!
