Monogram Art, Food Network Star, & Upcoming Giveaway


A couple of weeks ago Danielle hosted a giveaway on her blog for a monogram decal from, Decal Monogram, an Etsy store. I entered the giveaway but I also placed an order immediately! I love the decals from Decal Monograms and they’re reasonably priced! She has the cutest decals for your walls, cell phone, cars, vases, etc… The possibilities are endless. Being creative is the fun part, right?

I ordered the “extra large wall monogram decal” for my bedroom. It was only $25. I didn’t want to attach the decal to the wall so I used a 22x28 canvas from Hobby Lobby. I got the canvas with a 40% off coupon. Next I put the canvas into a 22x28 frame that was on sale for 50% off. I love the way it turned out and I can move my new art around the house or take it with me when I move.


Another view, so you can have a better idea of the size



Is anyone watching The Next Food Network Star? Who do you want to win? From day one, I’ve been pulling for Melissa and Debbie. Since Debbie was voted off on Sunday, I’m pulling for Melissa. Love her!







~Go Melissa~






Debbie~ voted off on Sunday. Too bad, I was looking forward to an Asian chef on Food Network.


Since I've won 3 giveaways in a row, I'm going to pay it forward and host a giveaway on my blog this week. It will be for anyone who is a follower or becomes a follower. Stay tuned....
