I have a good friend here who has a machine to cut vinyl lettering (she is the one who helped me make the B&B sign for my birthday)... Well, unfortunately, she is moving to Japan this summer ... so... I decided that I needed to get my own machine. I LOVE all the things she has made for her house and there are tons of ideas on the internet. Well, with the help from my loving hubby, I bought me a cutter and some vinyl ...
This is my very first project!! I love the way it turned out. I've had the idea (and therefore the corresponding frames) since I lived in Las Vegas... I'm so excited! I hardly know where to begin ... so many ideas running around in my head!!
My friend has been in a lot of demand over here in Germany. It's not as easy to get vinyl lettering here. By "researching" on the web, it seems that there are TONS of individual people and other companies that sell in the states. I don't really want to start a business ... But, I want to be fair in what I charge for the material and my time... I was DEFINITELY surprised how much time it took me to design it all on the computer and get it all ready to cut (I had to use a specific program that came with the machine, and I am not at all used to it.)... I decided to make a little book that has a price list and maybe the font samples and some quote/saying ideas. We'll see ... I already have a "job" substituting at the middle school. Right now, I'm excited to make cute things! I'm sure I'll be posting stuff!
