This is something I made several months ago, but never got around to sharing with you. It is a sign with our last name, the year we were married, and all of our names on it. There are tons of these on Etsy, but they're pretty expensive, and I couldn't find any with the exact look I wanted. So I decided to make one!
I knew I could handle doing the painting of the background and the flourish, but I didn't feel I was up to hand-lettering the whole thing! I don't have a Silhouette machine, but there are people on Etsy who will do custom-lettering on the Silhouette for you. So I ordered the vinyl lettering, and it worked wonderfully! It was much cheaper than ordering the whole thing, and I was able to get the exact font and size I needed.
I knew exactly where I wanted it to hang, so I customized the colors and size for this spot over our bed.
The kids love to stand on the bed and point out everyone's names!

Corey there is nothing you cannot do I am sure of it. I kept waiting for the link to see where to buy it? This is a beautiful room. You can find the bird clips at Amazon. They come in a bag of mixed colors and are darling...smiles...Renee
