A few weeks ago I won a CSN giftcard giveaway from {DavesWife} at The Diary Of Daves Wife (thanks Kristy!) and while scouring the website trying to decide which goodies I wanted to buy, I came across this oval chalkboard sticker frame:
Ooh yeah! I had to have it and it was only $14.00!
I didn't read (or remember reading) the dimensions of the sticker, so when it came in a large box, I was pleasantly surprised! Turns out it is approx 28in x 23in.
You wipe the wall spot clean, peel the sticker paper off the back and stick it.
I only wanted the actual oval frame part to go on the wall, not the surrounding square corners (because duh, that would look lame) so I cut it out:
Which means I then have.....
Sweet!
I've mentioned before how small our condo is, so I didn't have very many options of open wall space to put this sticker.
I decided the best place would be right inside the garage door entrance (the only entrance we use) so the Mister and I can leave totally awesome and immature important messages for eachother.
Side note: Nice placement of the fuse box, builders.
Really? This is the best place for it in the whole house? Really?
That's just swell and NOT AT ALL an eyesore.
*sigh*
I guess I could try to paint the panel the same color as the wall. But, that would require thinking and planning and doing, so... I just covered it with some metal flower magnets and turned it into "art".
Heh.
This is where the sticker is happily living:
And I love it!

Awesome!!! I really love your blog! Thanks for stopping by mine and for the nice comments ;) I am a twin, and am super duper close to my sister so I can instantly relate to your blog. Thanks again :)
ReplyDeleteSo CA-ute!!!!What an awesome find! And for only $14!!!!Looks like I need to go shopping ;0)
ReplyDeleteI love that wall sticker, too! Where did you find it?
ReplyDeleteLove the chalkboard wall sticker...darling!!!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the fuse box...some builders don't think about pretty at all, just function! The box & keypad for my house alram is on the most obvious wall in my dining area and it bugs me soooo bad!!!
Looks like you have made your fuse box a lot cuter and a lot less noticable by adding those darling flowers.
