Lounge Room Wall

You may remember the wall in my lounge room above the big (hard to make look pretty) TV. It started out looking like this.....

Then it looked like this for a while

Then I spent some birthday money and bought some decals from Leen the Graphics Queen and the wall looked like this....

I felt that it wasn't quite balanced and I added some more decals that I had left from another project.

But after seeing all of the great stuff around on everyone else's blogs, combined with the fact that the decals I added in the picture above didn't seem to like sticking to the wall, I found these cute bird cage decals and thought I would try them.

What do you think?

They were very tricky to get on the wall straight but my WH helped me.

I like them.

On another note I realised that when I looked at the number of posts I was up to it included all of the drafts that never got published (back in the day when I didn't realise that you could retrieve your posts after they disappeared when you were halfway through them... aarghh.... very frustrating!)

Anyway, my 100th post is not just around the corner ( about 10 posts away) but never mind.......,

I have decided to have a giveaway and so I will have a giveaway.

Check back on Monday for all of the details!

Wall Decals

Guess what was waiting for me when I got home today? I was so excited. My birthday present had arrived!! My birthday was a while ago and I got some money so I decided to use some of it to buy some wall decals. I have been eyeing these off for quite a while now and finally I had a perfect reason for buying some.

I ordered my decals from Leen the graphics queen you can find her at www.LeentheGraphicsQueen.com and I am really impressed with the delivery and service.

I knew that I wanted to put one of the decals here on the wall (support beam). I had originally planned to put the quote 'The Will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you' however I didn't measure before I ordered and the letters were too tall. So I had to reassess my plan.

After some deliberation I decided to re-configure the second decal and use it here instead.

As it turns out I am very pleased with the result. The two little blue bird were thank you gifts (from Leen) and I think they set it off perfectly.

The decals came with instructions on how to best apply them to the wall and it was very easy.

I ended up placing the other decal above our TV in the lounge room.

I am really happy with the way the decals look, thanks Leen you have one satisfied customer!
