~* Presents for the Pilot*~

I am so excited to post these photos- My brother is a pilot, and needed decoration for his home.  So... you guessed it- his Christmas presents were all about decoration!  While working on this, I discovered how much I LOVE doing wood projects!  Its so relaxing to paint the backgrounds, then let the silhouette do the detailed stuff.

Ok- so here it is:  His big picture is a 2 foot X 2 foot piece on birch wood.  The second part is a tile- and I can honestly say these two projects are tied for my favorite projects EVER.

Hope you enjoy!

Yeah! The finished product!!

I started out by painting the background and letting it dry approximately 2 hours

I then placed the shadow layer of vinyl down first, followed by the dark brown accent piece.  I started from the bottom so I would make sure and have plenty of room for both the airplane and the text.

I just LOVE THIS TILE!

This aviator is ready to hit the skies!


Well, hope you've enjoyed these pictures!  I will be posting more Christmas craft and gift photos over the next week.

Happy New Year!

Thank goodness its not me!  :) However, my sweet sister-in-law in dental hygiene needed me to make a few things for her "little sis".  This post goes to prove that vinyl makes EVERYTHING better!! 

First, an A for the outside of her locker.

A hand mirror for her patients to see their sparkly clean teeth. :)

A box to keep all her tools and gadgets together. 

Hope you enjoyed these new projects!!  Hopefully the weekend will allow a LITTLE creativity time!!
