We cut the letters out of white vinyl using my Cricut. The hardest part was deciding which fonts to use and what size to make each letter. We combined fonts from several different cartridges to achieve the look I wanted. I think that part took longer than it did for us to actually cut out the vinyl and adhere it to the wall! 8 hours of labor but it only cost me $15 to make it.
Good thing Marty doesn't charge by the hour! Thanks girl for all the help!

I added the white shelf over the washer and dryer and it is very handy for all the laundry supplies and odds and ends that always seem to make their way there and never come out.
LAUNDRY TODAY OR NAKED TOMORROW - seems to be a recurring theme at our house!
How about at yours?

This is really cute. I love the self help signs, my family needs to get a clue on that for sure. Even if they did towels and sheets I would be thrilled.
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling I might come home to naked (or boxer short only) guys after work at night if I didn't keep up with it. :)
LOL! Don't you just hate laundry! I know I do and I put it off to the last minute. If I ever win the lottery I'm going to hire someone just to do it for me!
DeleteAfter 30 years of marriage, I've finally got my husband trained to sort the colors and to read labels! He helps when he can which lightens the load considerably.
Thanks for the comment and have a great week!
Hi Jeanette, thank you for stopping by and visiting my blog! I had fun doing that You are my Sunshine canvas...but I have to say I really like the laundry room sign. Looks great! I'll add you to my reader :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Shelley, I love it too! As soon as I saw a similar sign on Pinterest I knew that I had the perfect place for it in my laundry room. I was going to do it in black but my friend Marty convinced me that it would be better in white - and boy was she right! Really pops off the wall and goes with all the other white trim in there. Thanks for adding me to your reader :)
DeleteThat's really cute! I really like your cute baskets on the shelf, too. Great color combinations.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kimberly. I love my picnic baskets. The fabric ones have been around forever and I keep meaning to find some in red but just can't seem to find any that I like!
DeleteThanks for dropping in!
Oh my goodness, that saying is so perfect! Luckily I'm in a warm weather climate...naked isn't a terrible option. :)

Me too Karah! I think anything that can liven up the laundry room is a good idea and this just makes me smile. So appropriate for the laundry that I allow to pile up at our house.
DeleteDon't you just hate laundry? Thanks for stopping by. I'll be sure to check out your blog.
Love it. I love the red.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tara - Although I hate laundry I do love the color! LOL!
