My Creative Space - Home Sweet Home

I'm going to do something a little different this week on My Creative Space. Instead of showing my knitting or my sewing, I'm going to show some other arty stuff.

I've been looking around for a while for a sign to put on our wall at home between our lounges. I want a Home Sweet Home print. I couldn't find one that I loved, so I made one instead! I had a play on photoshop with some clipart that I bought from here and made up my own little sign. I think I like it! Now I just need to get it printed and framed.


Then, yesterday when I was doing some gardening with my 3 year old, I went into our shed which has a LOT of stuff in it. I was rumaging around in there and found a sign that I made years ago. I used to have it up at our old place and considering we have been in this house for 5.5 years, it's a long time since I have seen that sign! It never made it out of the unpacking here.

Think I'll find a nice spot for it outside and put it up.

    What a sweet coincidence that the old sign turned up at the same time the new one was made. Now you have something from your old place, and a sign made at your new place. The start of a tradition perhaps....

    With 2 gorgeous boys like that, it really is a Home Sweet Home. I love the picture you made.

    Both of these signs are so beautiful! How fortunate that you found the wooden one, must be a *sign*, literally!

    I'm visiting the kootoyoo creative spaces and your digital art is lovely! Funny how it matches that sign you made years ago too! :)
