Even before we moved in together, I had started decorating our new apartment. When Ryan agreed to the idea of a gallery wall, I was really excited to finally get to pull some of my favorite pieces out of my “to be framed” file, and also create and purchase new pieces to round it out.
One thing I knew I wanted was some kind of visual symbol that said that this home was ours together. Not a “bless this nest” kind of something, but a symbol of love and also the simplicity and honesty that I hoped our home would share. So armed with a needle and some thread, I made this little sampler, just six inches wide, to join the other art on our wall.
Now that we have encountered our first challenge and times are tight, I’ve been trying to think of ways to expand my idea of a “career” into things I love to do. Creating is one of these. And so, I’m officially announcing that for only $15 (plus shipping), you can have a sampler of your very own, custom made just for you with your initials and favorite colors.To bring a little more homeyness to your home. A symbol of love stitched and knotted together.

great idea! I wish you lived closer to me because I would hire you to help decorate my house, when we purchase it in the next few months.
Thanks girls!
Allison, you could always hire me as your e-decorator! Have you seen my virtual room makeovers? Sorry for the pitch, but thought I’d mention it. Congrats on such a big step in 2010!

such a sweet idea. i love personalized goodies like this.
Maggie, I’d like one! You know our initials and the colors you used in the photo will work great for us. We have a lot of red/pink accents in our bedroom, which I’m sure we’ll continue in our new place.
These are adorable.
