I know I just recently showed you a sign I made
celebrating our anniversary,
that now hangs in our room,
BUT
I made another one.
I actually have quite a few on the list of signs to make,
and if you follow me on Facebook,
you’ve already gotten a sneak peak.
I’m excited to finally share it with you!
Once we finished adding more board & batten,
the space needed something different.
This is what we had before:
I was never really settled with this, but it worked in the meantime,
because the thought of a blank wall,
would drive me nuts!
I grabbed some extra pallet boards and had the hubby secure them together for me.
I stained the boards, and then painted on the lyrics,
“You put your arms around me and I’m HOME”
by: Christina Perri
I always loved those lyrics, and it was a no brainer
to want to make a sign with them.
Once I was finished painting, I ran my sander over the entire thing
to rough things up a bit, it’s kinda hard to see in the photos,
but I just wanted a little gentle wear and tear 🙂
I also did a few other little updates.
I added a new duvet cover,
just to bring in some navy blue to our room, that I’ve used
through out the rest of our house.
I added some baskets to our night stands,
to clean things up a bit.
And make them look a little more tidy,
hiding stacks of magazines,
and other loose leaf papers that end up next to the bed.
I still have big plans for our master bedroom,
but for now I’m happy with the updates and small changes made.
Just what I needed to freshen things up.
But I’m most happy with how the latest sign came out.
Happy Monday!
Just found your blog tonight, am basically reading from end to end. 🙂 LOVE IT ALL!!
Where did you get that amazing duvet cover?
Thanks SO much Rachel!! Glad you are here 🙂 The duvet is from IKEA.. and I believe they still have it in stores, however they do not carry it online anymore 🙂 Thanks again, happy to connect with you 🙂 ~Bre

You have a lovely home! I was looking around and came across your mantle post. I would love to know about the wooden plank you made. I need something like that over my mantle but don’t have a clue how you came up with yours. I have a stone fireplace and I think a wooden plank would look great.
Leslie, I am on IT! I will make sure to put up a tutorial, it’s so simple, I love it!!! I love the look of it, and am so glad you do too! Thanks for leaving a comment and stopping by! ~Bre
