"BLOOM" Where You are Planted...

Recently I came across this image on Pinterest.  It was posted on the Pink Postcard blog but I was unable to find who created the vignette seen in the picture.  

What caught my eye were the large signs  with the wooden letters - Grow and  Bloom.  

I had no idea where this craft/vintage sale was, so there was no chance of me purchasing a sign, so I did the next best thing - I MADE one!!

I started with a leftover pine board I found in my basement.  I sprayed it pale aqua and distressed the edges. 


Then I painted some $1.00 letters I found at Walmart with a ballet slipper pink spray paint - and distressed them, too!


Then I added a wooden daisy leftover from this project.

Out came the hot glue gun and on went the letters.

TA-DA!!

What do you think?  I am not sure where I will hang it.  Outside for sure....but where??

I tried it in a few places.....

Here.......



And here too...


I may just leave it resting on the deck for awhile. I can enjoy most easily here.  

Thanks for popping by!!

  2. Wow, it looks fab, in actual fact I prefer your version to the original. It is always si much nicer making things yourself don't you think. It gives you such a sense of achievement seing it displayed in your home, nothing beats that x x x x
