vintage inspired message board … ♥

Happy Monday!
if you’re stopping over from FPTFY …
♥ WELCOME ♥
so glad you’re here!
and thank you to the lovely Keren
for making this vintage mason jar image so stinkin’ cute!
… her beautiful graphics can be the starting point for so many project ideas

i want to share this one with you today!

This is a super simple project that requires just a little prep work,

and can be done with any image and with any size frame.

I used some white muslin {any fabric will do}

white fleece

22 gauge wire {with the jewelry making supplies at any craft store}

iron on transfer sheets ~ I used these

staple gun or flat thumbtacks {not pictured}

and of course a frame { i found mine at Goodwill

and spray painted it white ahead of time }

After following the directions on the back of the transfer sheet package,

(make sure you print your image in reverse!)

I cut the image out, very close to the edge before ironing it on to my fabric.

After it cools, peel the paper off of the image … so pretty!

I cut 2 pieces of fleece the same size as the backing that came with my frame and used it as a insert between the cardboard and the image (just to give it a bit of puffiness)…

… fit the image around the backing & the fleece and put it back into your frame.

Wind strips of wire around the front of the frame, and attach to the back

using a staple gun or flat thumbtacks.

Here is mine right next to my kitchen sink …

I spend a lot of time here! {as most of us do!}

It’s a place where I put notes I want to remember

or things i want to focus on during my day ♥

a few more favorites of mine from her etsy shop!

tons of ideas are floatin’ around in my head!

the bicycle would be super cute on a library or market canvas tote

maybe an apron or tea party tablecloth for a little girl’s Christmas gift??!

baby onesies or blankets with the little birdie

the sewing machine is going to be incorporated onto my machine cover …

if i ever get around to making it 🙂

thank you for all the wonderful images Keren!

much love ♥

sweet parties here… ♥

Love your memo board, Jaime! The mason jar image is so cute and I love the others you show, too. Great idea to use the wire and clothes pins to hold notes and such.
