Find LOVE Here

Today I'm linking up to the 'Find Some Love Fest'



If this is your first time here, WELCOME! Please have a look around! 



I know you have lots of blogs to check out, so I won't waste any time, but before I get to today's project, check out these other LOVE projects I've already shared...

I posted about this LOVE project here:

 And these cute personalized hearts here:

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today's project is something I've been meaning to do for awhile.  One of my personal goals for this year is to be better about telling the people I love most why I love them, am thankful for them, am blessed by them etc.  This project will help me do just that and it was super easy :)

 
I decorated a picture frame that I can use a dry erase marker to write little notes on. 

Here's the finished product:

It was SO. EASY. 

I bought the frame at Hobby Lobby at 50% off (about $8)
I bought some different colors of fabric at Hobby Lobby

 I already had paper for the background, and I just printed out the words that are in black on our printer.
I used the same vinyl that I used here and my Cricut for the "love" (since discovering the vinyl, i'm kind of obsessed!)

Then I used the fabric to make rosettes.  I decided that I didn't need to show you that part since there are so many good tutorials already out there (just google 'how to make a fabric rosette')
For the bottom corner I made a rosette in a heart shape.

The *best* part is that I decided to put the rosettes on the frame with sticky-backed velcro.so that I can swap out the decor for next month, and each month after that! 

I'll post again next month when I fancy up the frame for St. Patty's Day...the green background paper is going to say 'i'm lucky because'  I'm so excited to make this frame a tradition in our family and change up the decor each month!

One more picture
