My Family, Our Rules

How incredibly cute are the Family Rules signs floating around blog land?

I bookmarked this post by My Repurposed Life like 6 months ago...and I've finally gotten around to making mine!

Here's how it turned out:

I bought the navy long frame from Goodwill a while back. {$3 and I didn't even have to paint it - wow, right!} I tossed around several ideas for it's use and where to put it when I started work on the new, INSIDE Laundry/Play Room.

It's the perfect place to hang our little reminders! :)

Here's how I did it:

• Mod Podged that awesome houndstooth paper to the back of my frame.
• Drew our the rules with a pencil and painted over it in black.
• Glued on some fun accessories...and I was done!
  

The painting was a little time consuming, but overall it was pretty simple...and I love how it turned out!

{PS: There's a little sneak peek at the alphabet wall! Post to come soon!}
