Construction Party

My husband and I are painstakingly restoring our old house and want to throw a construction party when it's finished. I need some creative ideas that we could incorporate without it being too "Bob the Builder".

Here are some quick ideas that came to mind. Help Me!!


Dump truck filled with mixed nut or candy

Paint chips as decorations from any home improvement store

Nail party picks from Kitchen Kapers

Address Label Bands *For Sale*

I had a special request through Etsy over the weekend.

I love your address labels that wrap around. Are you coming out with any more designs? Say a black and white one?

Well, in response to that, I got right to work on some new designs. I love when people ask for something specific. That way I don't feel so random. I enjoy having a purpose to make something specific. I hope these fit the bill.

#1 : Rowan...buy it here
#2 : Cirque...buy it here
#3 : Dotty...buy it here

These are listed as a PDF file that I will e-mail to you. $8.00 to print as many as you want & no shipping. They measure 8.25 x 2.25 and wrap around the side of your envelope. 5 x 7 envelopes work great. Like this...
If you want to download the Santa labels that I made last week...get them here or here or here!

More Thanks

I'm coming to realize that the blogging world is a strange (in a good way) and wonderful place. So many creative and helpful folks out there. I couldn't post a PDF on this site, so I contacted a few others and voila...address labels to share.

So...THANK YOU to Vintage Glam blog for posting about my Santa Labels today. If you are interested in a vintage wedding, this is the site to check out. She also has tons of FREEBIES to download!! (including my labels)

Many Thanks

A big THANK YOU to Creature Comforts blog for posting my Santa Labels yesterday! Check out her blog for a serious dose of daily inspiration and to download the labels!

Vintage Santa Address Labels

Just in time for sending out your Christmas cards...

I've made some super cute wrap around address labels that I want to share with you. The labels are 8.25 x 2.25 and wrap around the side of the envelope. The return address is on the back.
The file will come to you as a PDF that you just have to print out on your home computer. There are 3 images per sheet, so print as many as you'd like on some label paper.
Leave me a comment with your email address if you'd like me to send you your very own copy.
