Wedding Guest Book

Carrying on with the wedding theme we mustn't forget the guests.
These are the chosen few that are important in our lives and who we want to share our special day with. 
They also have the best tales about us so why not give them a platform to write a little something and we can look back over for years to come.

this is a 12 x 12 scrapbook with crisp white blank pages inside just waiting to be wrote on.
I chose to use HTV (heat transfer vinyl) in rosegold from G.M.Crafts  as I didn't want this peeling in a few years from now so the addition of heat setting it should keep it perfect.


I think you'll agree the rosegold is perfect, not brassy or in your face, it's a beautiful vinyl.

Adding Vinyl to Towels

I was sceptical whether or not this would work but using stretch HTV (heat transfer vinyl) it worked beautifully.
Picture the scene, the bride and groom coming home to spend the rest of their lives together and on the towel rack a little reminder of being newly weds.


One each although I'm guessing the brides will end up make up and mascara stained befor she moves on to using the groom towel.


I think they are rather sweet and although they may get many towels from guests personalising them is made easy with G.M.Crafts

Products Used
1 pair of white hand towels.

Work Shed Window Vinyl Decal

If you are looking ahead for Fathers day gift ideas here is one that Mr H loves.
His work shed window was looking tired and dirty until I did this for him.
I cleaned the outside of the window and set to work.


It was a work in progress cutting the wood grain patterned self adhesive vinyl first and laying down the foundation to work from.


Building up the layers I used silver gemstone vinyl next, this was all of the metal bits
on the design.


Next came the black vinyl as you can see it is coming together nicely.


Next up is the red, it's really looking the business now especially as My H also washed the inside of the window and I treat him to some brand new blinds.


you may also notice I used the patterned vinyl for the hammer handle and the pencil.
o the last layer was the yellow to give it a pop of colour.


we both love how this turned out and I'm sure it would be perfect for lots of men's tinkering sheds.

Fathers Day - Don't Panic

Who do you think you are kidding!
I suppose you have to be a certain age to appreciate this one.
with printed vinyl you can have so much fun, G.M.Crafts have got you covered with a fabulous selction of printed vinyl like the one I'm showing here the Union Jack.


Dads Army the old sit com was one of my husband favourite and we often end up watching repeats on it. 
So yes he actually loves this T-Shirt and wears it with pride.
I love you easy gift giving has become using vinyl and tailoring a design to an individual means it doesn't get pushed in a drawer and forgotten about.


in all a fairly cheap T-Shirt and a 15 second press to make a personalized gift.
