hello everyone! This is Jessica from vol.25 dropping by to share a cheery little DIY project. I am also here to host a fun giveaway where you can win your choice of any 8x10 print in my shop... or maybe you would like to take advantage of the unbelievably good buy 2 get 1 free sale I have going on right now. The sale expires on Thursday at Midnight, so be sure to not dilly dally if you want to snatch up some prints for yourself or as gifts :)
Ok Doke... so first up is the DIY I mentioned. It is super easy and really simple... basically I designed 4 sets of patterned paper in both a yellow and grey color scheme. All you need to do is print the pages you would like, cut, tape and voila your all done! You can download the pdf file here.

See what I mean? Super simple. I have to share that I first seen something similar done by Ez at Creature Comforts... but I cannot for the life of me locate a link. She had wrapped the individual tea lights with the paper, and I tried my hand at making a few for Christmas. They looked great... but unfortunately my 18 month old smooshed the sides of the paper in when "admiring" them. I decided I needed something with a little more structure, and so I decided to pick up some cheap drinking glasses from a thrift store... and so far they seem pretty kid proof. :) I like to pile a bunch of the battery operated tea lights inside the glass for a brighter glow. Oh- btw using vellum paper would really work well too. Just make sure it is printable, and if you cant locate any a thin copy paper will work just fine.
So... about that giveaway... I am super excited to offer up the winners choice of ANY 20.00 print from my shop. To enter the Giveaway, visit the Vol.25 Shop and tell us here in the comments, which print you want to win (plus your name&email). Winner will be announced this Friday!!
Oh! I did have something else that you might enjoy... I designed a set of love notes for that special someone in my life. Leave these around the house where you know they are destined to find them, and I promise that companion will feel extra special and well loved. :) You can download them here.
I love the DIY!
ReplyDeleteAnd I'd also love to win the hearts can build a home print.. It's perfect for my boyfriend and I's little house :)

Its difficult to pick a favourite print, but I think I'll stick with the one I featured on my blog a little while ago - The Journey (featuring a sweet little Boler-type camper trailer).

you read my mind! a few weeks ago i bought a damask print yellow candle but then my husband said that i could just make one... so i returned it with the intention of making my own candle holder w/ a fun yellow print!! well, you've just made my life that much easier with this DIY and printable so THANK YOU THANK YOU LA! =)
ReplyDeleteIn terms of the giveaway, I had the HARDEST time picking my favorite print. I love the wherever we are together, LOVE, and hearts can build a home, but i guess if i have to pick one then the LOVE one is pretty neat b/c my husband and i are both in IT and are on our computers ALL the time (so typewriter would kind of be like the old school equivalent). and i am just in LOVE with yellow and grey too!!!

My boyfriend has a yellow vintage typewriter just like the one in "real love stories never have endings". My grandmother gave it to him the day she met him, that's how great he is! We're moving in together this September, and I would love to hang this on the wall in our bedroom. All the pieces are adorable :)

This is an *insanely* hard choice! Seriously. The laundry prints would certainly brighten up my otherwise dull laundry room; but the "wherever home is" print is so fitting for our crazy life; we move alot. But those type writer prints have me beaming ear to ear!
ReplyDeleteI'd be happt to have any of these cuties in my home!

lisakercher@gmail.com
It was *so* hard to choose one favorite! :) in the end I chose Love Is Freedom - the one that says "the worst prison would be a closed heart". This quote is *so* true. I'm a very introverted person and I know how true this quote might be...
ReplyDeleteSo, i'd *love* to own it... :)
Efrat Kashat, EfratKashat@gmail.com
To pick a favorite is crazy-difficult! It's a tie between "the journey not the arrival matters" and "Love who you are". Sooo much talent there!

OH MY GOODNESS. You did a print of T.S. Eliots 'The Love Song of J. Alfered Prufrock'! You just so happened to use one of my favorite lines from my favorite poem. AH. I am such an English kid. Eliot steals my heart everytime. Next to Coleridge's "Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner." I'd love to win. Kristin Garrett KristinGa@kwc.edu
ReplyDeleteI love your prints! My fave would be the 'The secret to becoming who you wish to be' because it sums up what I'm going through at the moment.
ReplyDeleteKelly - elijahsmum@hotmail.com
Oh my, so many cute choices! My favorites are Puff of Love, Perched Love and Wherever We Are Together. I'd probably pick Wherever We Are Together if I had to choose one to win, since it would go so pretty in our house! Thank you much for the cute-orial too Jessica! Erin @ prettyghosts@hotmail.com
ReplyDeletetotally loving the diy! and while its hard to pick one favorite from the shop i have to say the typewriter with love above it is super adorable!
ReplyDeleteThe DIY was nice and simple to do. Thank you for sharing.

Aw, such a sweet DIY! It happened to run into vol.25's beautiful art some time ago, and since then I've been a regular reader or her blog. I love the quotes she attach to almost every print. Hm, even if it's a hard decision, i think my favourite ones are (1) 'Life is like riding a bycicle' in blueberry colour aaand (2) 'Hello world'. So true, so simple.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this oportunity!
