{You are My Happy} Plaque

Since we updated our bed and I am doing some new room decor, 
I want to do a little gallery wall corner. I had plans to do this before, 
but it never got done. So now with the updating...
IT IS going to get done! 

I have a vision in mind with some cute little signs along with other things
for the gallery wall. 


So today, I am going to show you 
how I made this cute and simple sign to put with the gallery wall:




This was easy to make and went together pretty quickly. I wanted it simple because I wanted the saying to stand out on its own!


How I Made It:

I cut a piece of wood that was 7"x9" in size. I then sanded down the edges.


Then I painted the whole board the blue color we are accenting in our room with. I did it with regular craft paint. I put a couple of coats on.


While that was drying, I got on my Cricut computer program and designed the saying,
"You are my happy."
I fell in LOVE with this saying the minute I heard it and knew I wanted it in my room somewhere. I used the font Lobster Two. This is one of my new favorite fonts! I cut it out in black vinyl. I then transferred that on to the bottom right corner of the board.


I originally was just going to leave it this way, but when I did it I thought it needed a little something more. Adding a ribbon to hang it up with was just the thing!!
I used black tulle to do that with. I used some 'V' hangers on the back to tie the ribbon on with.



And that's it!!!



I love how it turned out and can't wait
to get everything else put together for my gallery wall!!

  5. Looks adorable! I don't have the vinyl capability but I could try doing it by hand with printed/transferred letters I guess. I love how it turned out!! Thanks for sharing,
