Construction Platforms: unlocking the future of building safety

Or Sammy does, anyway.

Thanks for celebrating with me!Now this was a fun project!.I stumbled on a sign that I’d painted for Christmas a few years ago and decided to try making a few more to group together this year for a bigger impact..

I really thought it was going to take a lot more to get the look I wanted, but it actually came together pretty easily within a time frame of about 2 weeks..I used letter stamps on some of them and just sort of free-handed with the paintbrush on others..I tried to keep within the theme of signs you might see on a Christmas tree farm.. A Polish Christmas tree farm?

Is there even such a thing?I don’t know, but I made this sign a few years ago.

I thought it would be fun because my Mother-in-Law was born in Poland.

I Googled it to find out how to say “Merry Christmas” in Polish and I’m still not really sure if it’s right, but it looks cool!.There’s a good chance that you’ll continue to be drawn to that style for years to come.

I’ve always been a little traditional in my tastes, so for the things that would catch my eye first, like the shiny faucets and the light fixtures, I made sure that I kept them really traditional.Because I do enjoy modern style and conveniences too, when the time is right, I went with a pretty modern-looking tub and a really sleek toilet, which you’ll see in my next bathroom post.. Another tip for choosing a style that I love is to look at the exterior of your home when choosing the really eye-catching fixtures that will really dictate the overall “feel” of the room.

Take your cues from the style of your home’s exterior (or how you want your home’s exterior to look if you’re in the middle of renovating that too) and go with that.We live in an old Victorian style farmhouse, so choosing fixtures that make sense for a house of that style and from that period, helps bring kind of a cohesive feel to the overall design of our house.
