Baptism Display

Have you seen our cute new frames? I am seriously in love with them! And we have quite the selection... circle, scalloped, luxe, square, brackets. And there are so many fun projects you can do with them!
Last month my husband and I attended a baptism for our darling wedding flower girl. I really wanted to do something special for her since she did something special for me on my wedding day.
After seeing these freaking cute Martha Stewart stencils I knew I wanted to make her a frame to display at her baptism. And then she could hang it in her room after. Look how adorable these patterns are that are included in the Arabesque pattern! And we just started carrying the pack in the store for $14.95.
 
I started by spray painting the frame a fun aqua blue color and stenciling over it with white paint. One of our previous guest bloggers show how easy it is in this tutorial. And then I papered her a number 8 to display next to her frame on her sign in table. I love how it turned it out and she was so excited to put them in her room after.  


And because I love our readers I'm going to giveaway a Martha Stewart Arabesque stencil. To enter, leave a comment in this post. *If you do not have a blogger account you'll need to comment anonymously but be sure to leave you name with the comment.*  I will pick a winner and announce them in this post on Friday December 14th.

**UPDATE** Our winner is Tami Walker**

    I am giving my daughter a pencil drawing of her older brother who passed away in a car accident. I want to paint one of your wood frames black but wanted to add some kind of design to it so it wouldn't be so plain, these stencils would be perfect, plus I love Martha Stewart's crafts items. My daughter will love it.
