fresh.

a few weeks ago, as we were tearing down the christmas decorations way faster than they had been put up, i decided that our house - especially our kitchen - needed a little 'freshening up'.

i have been on a roll with my white spray paint. painting old picture frames that i don't use anymore, book ends, lamps, etc. basically anything that i don't love as-is has gotten a coat of spray paint or has been hauled off to goodwill.

in the midst of my freshening & rearranging, i made these little 'prints'.


{i got a printer for christmas and i've used it almost everyday.}

i know that i've seen something similar on a blog i read, i just can't remember where. i actually think i got the idea from some things i saw on etsy. i just used one of my favorite scripture verses and then the fruits of the spirit.

they now hang in my kitchen which is in desperate need of a new paint job. where i see them every.day. i need to be reminded to be joyful in the lord. sadly, i do need to be reminded every day. do you? i think we can all use a reminder.... especially mommies!

so if you'd like to 'freshen' up a spot in your house, i decided to try my hand at 'file sharing' so you can download them and print them out for yourself. slap 'em in a cheap-o white frame {or a fancy one if you roll like that} and there you go. instant freshness {and a tad of conviction when you're being impatient with your kiddos. nope? just me?}

they're sized at 5 x 7.

happy freshening!!!

Very cool. Thanks for sharing! Did you use photoshop to make them?
