DIY -- LOVE LOVE LOVE DIY projects.
(I am one of the gals on the DIY Club too.)


Today I am going to show you a project I worked on for a bathroom theme that I came up with.
{The bathroom is not completed yet-it's a work in progress.}

My husband is in school to become a nurse anesthesis and I thought a Vintage Apothecary Spa theme would be fun and relaxing. So where to begin--that was the question of the day.

PROJECT NUMBER 1--I decided that we needed a SPA SIGN.
It needed big bold lettering.

It needed cool hooks to hang a SPA BAG.
Every SPA sign needs a SPA BAG right?

It needed to look vintage, shabby and chic.
I love how it turned out. Head on over to The DIY Club for the full tutorial on how to make this cool signage.

We also have a coupon code (on the side bar) for 40% off custom lettering at Say It On The Wall over at the DIY Club.


To recreate this project you will need:
DecoArt Raw Umber and White Paint
I ordered my hooks from Rockler
They have amazing products. These hooks were only $6.29 each.
I ordered my SPA vinyl from Say It On The Wall
It is a SPECIAL ORDER head over to for a special deal on this vinyl
(Look for the SPA Button on the side bar)

a paint brush
A sanding bug or some sand paper
a little spakling
a recepticle for your paint--an old bowl will do
water
2 x 4
1 x 4
wood trim
saw
clamps

I also made a SPA bag for our essential spa items. I will be posting that at Its So Very Cheri on Wednesday.

I am working on more projects for the bathroom so stay tuned.
I am also working on the kitchen and living room makeover too-just call me crazy.

I hope you will come on over and check out Its So Very Cheri.

It starts March 13-31.
