Welcome Sign

As promised in my Five on Friday, I wanted to do an installment of things we did for my daughter-in-law Kayla's shower.  First, I want to say that I have the best daughter-in-law in the world!  We are very grateful to have her as part of our family. 

When we started planning Kayla's shower, we knew we wanted to coordinate the items we needed to purchase so we could use them at the shower and wedding.  We started with the welcome sign.  Kayla found a gorgeous frame at a yard sale (!) and we knew it would be perfect for both events.



Shower Welcome Sign

Sign at Wedding

The shower welcome design was purchased on Etsy and we had it enlarged.  The wedding sign we designed ourselves.  Kinko's will enlarge and print a color image for $7.25 per square foot -- so you can get a 24" x 36" print for about $40.  If you are printing in black and white, the cost goes down to $4.50 per square foot.

 

We placed the shower welcome sign on the porch so guests felt comfortable walking in and joining the party. 

 

 

It also made a great backdrop for pictures!  :)

 

 

 

It's hard to believe it's been a year since we had Kayla's shower.  Stay tuned for more shower and wedding blogs.
