I have such an easy decorating idea for you today. You may already be familiar with this and some other DIY gilded chalkboards I made a while ago. And all the ways I've used it thus far to add just the right touch to my faux mini-mantle when it's needed that extra sumptin-sumptin around certain holidays.
For Christmas:
For Christmas:
And most recently for Easter:
The word for the day is V-E-R-S-A-T-I-L-E.
Well, I've just gone and added a new look to it.
Nothing fancy. Just plain old Welcome. And a capital "A" for our family name initial. And you can never go wrong with that boxwood wreath. I think this works well for us right now as we try and make the house welcoming but not too "personal" for prospective buyers. You can see where I copied the font from here.
I tried the look with some of my myrtle topiaries, which I love! You can see where I talk about them here.
I really do love experimenting with vignettes on my faux mini-mantle of sorts. I think this one is my favorite so far.
Which one is YOUR favorite?

Just something about a chalkboard that's hard to resist. I love them!
I really like it - so versatile. I am another one that likes boxwood.
Been thru that "depersonalizing your home" a few times myself, so know what you are dealing with.
Enjoy your weekend!
Just such a cute idea. I really love them all but my favorite is the Happy Easter one! xo Diana
It looks great, I'll have to give it a try. It looks so good with the wreath.
Hugs,

They're all so creative, but I think my favorite is the peace sign.
Love the idea of a pretty chalkboard that can be changed up whenever the mood strikes.

I've always loved chalkboards, and love having something to change with the seasons or holidays. The boxwood wreath is a great touch. I used a alphabet stencil on my chalkboard, and everyone asked how I did it...Just the cardboard sets you can get at the Wally mart or Michael's.
My handwriting is not as good as yours;-). Remembering your yard in the spring, bet it's beautiful right now... take care. Love, Penny
For me it's the myrtle topiries love the look with the boxwood wreath...very pretty!
I don't know if I can pick a favorite...I like all of them. You will be featured at this weeks party.
Blessings,
Linda
