A Less Expensive Solution to Vinyl Decorating
Have you ever used vinyl in your Cricut or Silhouette die cut machine? The vinyl is quite expensive and although I love the projects people create, I just can’t bring myself to spend that kind of money on vinyl – so I set out to see if I can come up with a better solution. That solution is contact paper. This is one project with the contact paper – my kids each have Kindle Fires to help meet their special needs educational growth. I bought heavy duty cases to protect them but unfortunately the cases are exactly the same – both black and we could never tell who’s is who’s…

Decorating the Camper with Contact Paper
After my experiment putting my blog site name on the rear window of my car I have decided to decorate the camper. The car adhesive has held up to storms, window wipers, car washes and it still looks good as new. I have made many signs for the camper that hang around the camper and through earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes and more they always get ruined. Now I am going to put the sign directly on the camper. My husband nearly had a stroke when he saw me put it on my “muscle car” but he generally doesn’t intervene too much in my creations. He is all in favor of the…

Advertising My Blog on My Car With Contact Paper
Recently I have been looking at purchasing a vinyl set of letters to place on my rear window advertising my blog. But of course I figured I must be able to do this myself. I succeeded but in some ways this is still a project “fail” simply because of me not paying attention to detail when planning. I made a set of letters to advertise my blog on my Cricut. I used black contact paper. Centering the letters is difficult because I am working with each letter individually rather than a nice, precut strip of vinyl. But for 1/5 of the cost – I am very pleased with the result. Before I…

Contact Paper instead of Cricut Vinyl
Have you ever used vinyl in your cricut or Silhouette? It is quite expensive and although I love the projects people create, I just can’t bring myself to spend that kind of money if I can come up with a better solution. That solution is contact paper. This is one project – my kids each have Kindle Fires to help meet their special needs. I bought heavy duty cases to protect them but unfortunately the cases are exactly the same – both black and we could never tell who’s is who’s without turning the Kindles on and waiting to see who it belongs to. I bought black and white paisley…

Reading Retelling Strategies
I honestly don’t know who developed this particular strategy so I will tell you – it wasn’t me. But I wanted to make it more of a tactile activity so I took the strategies and modified them to assist my kids’ learning styles. The strategies are based on shapes. The triangle is for the beginning of the story, the rectangle/square is for the middle of the story and the circle is to sum up the story. I used my Cricut to create the simple shapes out of metallic colored cardstock. For my daughter, I made a folder out of 12×12 card stock and a couple decorations – not too much…

Another Sign
This isn’t the final sign for the camper but this is what we are using for now. The original sign ended up staying at home for the front yard since it was so large and just fit with the landscaping in the yard. In the meantime I created this one. Still not happy with it, but figured I would show it anyhow. I need a little more inspiration for a final sign. This one however was made with images from the Cricut, Outdoor Mod Podge, Polyurethane, old wooden signs, Rustoleum black spray paint, soda can tabs (to hang), plastic ties (to hang). I think I need a router and a…

The Large Sign
This is the sign that I originally made for the camper – but since it hasn’t made it there yet I have re-allocated it to the front yard. Naturally in order to do this as inexpensively as possible I had to strategize… Just a reminder – this sign was designed from an old train station sign (that is how large it is). I then spray painted it glossy black; cut out our name with heavyweight metallic shades of cardstock (assorted); Mod Podged them on; Poly-ed the end result. So now I needed to figure out how to hang it or display it. I found one of these iron plant hangers…
