A few knock-offs

Hey girls!! Shame on me for not posting for a while. Hard to get on here when the sun is shining and begging us all to play. Here are a few projects I did last week. We have all seen these frames for sale and they are very EXPENSIVE. Well, as least to me. So I thought, I will make my own. I had a local woodshop cut the frames for me-15x15 with a 5 in hole. Then I had the local vinyl store cut the vinyl. I painted it and applied the words. These are so darn easy!! Right now these are the only pics I had to put in-just ignore them.:) It all added up to about $16 for the long quote and less than $10 for the small ones. Not too shabby!
This one was for Mother's day for my mom and the one below was for my SIL.I saw this Father's Day idea a while back and fell in love with it. I can't remember where I found it. I will probably wait a year or so to do this for my husband, seeing as we only have two kids right now.

Any other ideas for Father's Day or projects you are all working on?

Sha, you are the queen of the frames!!! I have officially decided that there is nothing you CAN'T do. :) I love them all... especially that last one.
