Ms. Haley



Kelly Cannon ordered a special little 6x9 teacher canvas for her good friend. She is a first year teacher and Kelly wanted something to celebrate. I love that idea - so sweet!



I've been in Murfreesboro all day today getting Carter a check up. I am so happy to say that he has made a full recovery from his pneumonia. Now I am settling in with a Gigi's cupcake and a Toddlers and Tiaras marathon! Whew, what a day!

Mrs. Rachel


I told you I had a bunch of teacher orders to share! I do have just a few more and then I'll move on to something else. It's just that time of the year! I love this simple but so cute design. It works with any colors and any size canvas.
This is an 11x14 (perfect for the door or hallway!) and makes a perfect teacher gift at $30.00. Keep it in mind when the holidays roll around!

Mrs. Wright


This might be my favorite teacher sign design - it's so cute! I am a big fan of paisleys and am excited to be working on some new things in that department. This is an etsy order from Lindsay in Mississippi. Now she start her school year off right!

If you've never visited my etsy shop, I'd love to have you come see me!

Mrs. Laura


My sweet friend, Laura Dunlap, wanted something in hot pink and black to decorate the door to her speech room. I decided to do extra large dots in the background with some pretty black lettering over the top. I think it turned out so pretty!
Apparently, I've spent too much time at the pool. I didn't even know there was such a thing! I've developed an ear infection - swimmer's ear. It is very painful and has slowed down my painting progress. I'm in bed today! I am sure the antibiotics and ear drops will kick in any time now.

Mrs. Howard


This kicks off a long line of teacher canvases! I took all of my teacher orders and bumped them to the top of the to do list. I apologize to everyone else, but I know how important it is to have everything in place and just perfect for that first day of school! I am working on my zebra print curtains today!


This super cute 16x16 canvas has shipped out and made it safely all the way to south Florida. Tissan Howard wanted something to brighten up her classroom. She sent me some color and pattern inspiration and font ideas. I put it all together and came up with this design. I absolutely love it!

What's In The Bag?


My kids can't stand to see a gift bag in the house and not know what's in it! This little bag is being delivered to Et Cetera today for pick up.


It's filled with letters for Allison Haley. She wanted a set of plain white letters painted as a baby gift. I've done letters just like this in the past to match the same bedding. Click here to see that bedding.


All of the letters, colors, and patterns look so good together. I can't wait to see them on the wall! Send me a picture, Allison!

Class Rules


It's almost that time of the year - back to school! As a matter of fact, I've got my Open House tomorrow night! I've been painting lots of teacher canvases lately so I know all of you are working as hard as I am to get your rooms ready. I've got one of these cute 8x10 class rules available if you need a teacher gift or one for yourself.


The other one has already been personalized and delivered to "Mrs. Jaco"! She snapped this one up about five minutes (literally!) after I dropped it off at the store.


"Mrs. Jennifer" ordered some class rules for her room from Et Cetera. She wanted primary colors with a little more of the blue. This is the first time I've done this design in these colors and I think it turned out so cute! That big blue satin ribbon is the perfect way to bring out the blue!
