try your LUCK in our March Giveaway

leave a comment and you maybe the LUCKY winner of a
DOOR PRIZE
We love the welcoming look of vinyl on front DOORS (or any door)! So we want to spread the warmth! Here is the LUCKY part: you get to decide your phrase, your vinyl color, & your font! the only catch: the area size of your order must be within 24 inches wide x 7.5 inches tall. 'WELCOME' is one of our most common requests. However, don't hold back. Be Creative. Be Wordy. Be Yourself. for those of you who claim to be 'craft-challenged' (although I do not believe that person exists), I thought of a few quote suggestions:
Our home is a sanctuary where...
God's Spirit can dwell, the storm stops at the door, Love reigns and Peace dwells
(Thanks to my mom who found this quote by President Monson. We have paraphrased the exact quote. I LOVE THIS. I immediately cut it and placed it above our window with some fancy swirls next to it. I think it would be perfect for a front door; ours is just too ugly)
Welcome
happy is the home that shelters a friend
Peace, Love, and Joy
TO ALL WHO ENTER HERE
BIENVENIDOS
This Home Established in 1996
Welcome
SIT, STAY A WHILE
don't keep it to your front door, think of the other doors within your home:
(kitchen)
Gather Round
The Gathering Place
Delighted
you're here
Country Kitchen
Pantry
(laundry room/bathrooms)
Self-Serve Laundry
open 24 hours
drop your drawers here
The Laundry Room
loads of fun
You're never fully dressed until you
WEAR A SMILE
Beauty
is a light in the heart
little girl's room
Powder Room
(bedrooms)
Dream
Together
is our favorite place to be
do not disturb
the PRINCESS sleeps here
Girl's ROOM
(I would love to do this and glue two huge gerber daisies for the 'o's)
Let him sleep...for when he wakes he will
MOVE MOUNTAINS
B is for BABY
I hope this long list helps! We are so exciting to see just what you come up with. All we ask is that the winner emails us a picture of their new door creation! Feel free to give this away as a gift to someone else, as well; just don't forget the picture.
We so appreciate every one's support. remember to spread the word. Also, Cottage Quotes would love to be added to your sidebar. 2009 will be full of updates that you will not want to miss! good LUCK to all.
.the contest ends thursday.
