DIY Disney Shirts With Clean Cut Studio{Giveaway}

With our upcoming adventure to Magic Kingdom I wanted some cute Disney shirts for us to wear.

I was on a budget and a time crunch to get us some shirts. I scoured all over etsy trying to find us some shirts. They were either out of my price range or the turn around time was too long. That is when I came across Courtney's shop, Clean Cut Studio. She sells the cutest vinyl iron decals and had exactly what I was looking for!

From the first message. Courtney was such a doll to work with. She is seriously the sweetest! I had wanted a mom and dad decal for my hubbs and I, but I didn't want them too big. I was already pushing my luck with getting the hubbs to wear a matching Disney shirt. She was happy to customize the decals to my preference

I think Courtney may have a little postal fairy hanging out in her back pocket because the decals arrived quickly. I ordered on Saturday morning and they were in my mailbox on Monday morning. They traveled from California to South Carolina in record timing!! 

I was a bit nervous when it came time to put the decals on because the iron and I aren't exactly friends. I seriously don't iron anything.

My mom may or may not still do my ironing for me. 

The decals ironed on like a dream and if I can iron these on and not mess them up then anyone can do this with ease.

I am seriously in love with our shirts and can't wait to rock them out at Magic Kindgom.
 
  Courtney has been so gracious and is going to give one lucky reader a $15 credit to her Etsy shop, Clean Cut Stuido, which will include free shipping! Head over to check out her seriously adorable decals and enter the giveaway! You won't want to miss this giveaway and a chance at working with Courtney!

** I was in no way compensated for the review. I purchased the decals with my own money. The opinions in this post are just that, mine, based on my experience**

Oh How Pinteresting!


I'm sure we have all seen the pins of the painted knife block floating around Pinterest world. I know I have, and I have this one pinned and knew I wanted to do it the moment I saw it.

This project cost me a total of $0. I had everything I needed to revamp my knife block. 

The paint is from a nice sample that Valspar sent me a while back. I picked the color called sprinkles. The sample came in a nice sized tub and even had a mini roller and tray. 

The black paint is acrylic paint I had leftover from another project. 

My knife block went from this.
  After a couple coats of paint it looks like this.
 I'm not all that crazy about the E. My paintbrush slipped and I had to attempt to fix it. I'm sure my OCD will get the best of me and I will redo the E. Eventually. 

I love how it turned out and adds such a pretty pop of color to my teeny tiny kitchen.
