Hello Summer Door Hanger

I'm back with another fun project to celebrate Summer... my favorite season!
I've shared quite a few of the wooden cutouts from Signopoly that make great door hangers or home decor. And, these sunglasses are super cute!
 I painted the frame with the color, Tree Frog Green. This is just a base because I did something fun with this color later on.
 If you've been here before, then you know that I love Dixie Belle Paint & use it for everything. It's intended for painting furniture, but the colors are so gorgeous that it's great for projects like this.
I painted an ocean sunset on the glasses...




 Then I added some palm trees...
 I made a vinyl stencil using my Cricut Maker to say, "hello summer." 
I added a yellow highlight to the letters.

 I added Dixie Belle's Crackle medium over the Tree Frog Green and let it sit overnight before adding a top color.
After letting the Crackle medium dry overnight, I painted over it with the color, Daisy.
 I used a Prima mould & modeling material to create a little flower embellishment for the corners of the glasses.
Hello Summer!!! Let the fun begin!

Sunsets And A Canvas Factory Giveaway

Is it just me or have the sunsets been especially beautiful the last year? Maybe, it's just because I'm getting older and I appreciate them more. Whatever the reason, I take a lot of sunset pictures. 


If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook then I'm sure you've seen one or fifty of my sunset pictures. I just can't help myself!
We live on a lake and our dock faces West, making for the perfect view of the show God puts on for us every evening.
If you look closely, you can see the tip of a fishing pole in a lot of my sunset pictures. Because while I'm fishing for the perfect photo, my husband is fishing for fish!



My husband is awesome and let's me sit in the front of the canoe with a glass of wine while he paddles us around...


Because my husband and sunsets on our lake are two of my favorite things, I had one of my favorite photos put on a canvas at Canvas Factory...
I simply uploaded my photo using Canvas Factory's easy to follow instructions and in about a week I had a beautiful 16 x 20 canvas that I will cherish forever!
