Baby Room Decor Idea! - I Love You Alphabet Letters [DIY, MOMLIFE]

Interior decorating is by no means my forté but, after seeing baby room photos posted by Instagram mamas I follow, I was just curious to see what other ideas are out there. So, of course, I took to Pinterest.

That said, this is by no means my idea. However, I did execute the idea in a slightly different way. I believe the pin I saw used paper mache letters, which might have been easier to implement because you can pick them up premade at Joann Fabrics. Each letter, however, costs $3.50, so I was looking for something a little more affordable.

I was with a friend at Joann's who happened to be eyeing a Cricut for a while now— not that I knew what it was but have since learned. She offered to make me the letters, which is what you see up on my wall.

The paper is fancy cardstock, which are available in pads and single sheets, and I hung them up simply using masking tape.

Shout out to crafty mom friends :>

I have some more blank wall space and might consider some other DIY projects. If you have any ideas or suggestions, I'm all ears. Leave your thoughts or links in the Comments, and I'll be sure to check them out.

As for 'baby room', that might be a misnomer. This is my room. But what's mine are my kids' :> xo

Yahoo's New Logo Unveiled!

CEO Marissa Mayer 'geeks out' on Yahoo's newly unveiled logo.



Here are the design notes behind the change...



And an accompanying video animation...



Despite my agreement that sans serif does give a fresher, more modern look, I actually miss the serif that gave the now-old (18 years, if you're counting) version some character. While the video made the new logo look like it'd be cool (yay, video, well played! :>), I personally think the final version, embossed, is overly simple, like a WordArt creation. More notably, I think it looks too stick-figurishly weak.

But that's just me. What do YOU think about Yahoo's newest logo? (Old vs. new below).



Share in the Comments below or Tweet/Instagram us your opinions, we'd love to hear! :> :> xoxo
