I love my cricut!

Have i mentioned lately how much i love my cricut? This is what Randy got me for Christmas & while it was a pretty expensive gift, i feel certain we have probably already gotten close to our money's worth out of it! It is great for scrapping, but i have also been cutting out vinyl with it! I love to do this! I gave a red platter (from a yard sale) a cute little monogram love for my "plate wall" in the dining room.....
For the record, Randy totally doesn't get the whole "M" thing. He thinks this is ridiculous & doesn't understand while we have plates on the wall for one, and two, why we have to put an M or "moss" on everything! Men, they just haven't any style sometimes!

Any who, i also couldn't figure out what to do to make this plain green speckled plate look better to put on my kitchen wall. So.... i took it upstairs, & gave it some cute vinyl pizzazz too by putting a cute little bird in the middle. Isn't is adorable?!

And while i am giving you a sneak peak of the house here, i will go ahead & post this picture. Randy hung my curtain rods in the living room tonight finally & it looks "homier" already! (Once we moved all the junk around the windows it did anyway!)... Even he said it looked much better!
This is not a good picture, but the cute little green wreath hanging between the windows was also a bargain. I just love it & i only paid $3.99 for it!
