Okio B Designs

A craft, food, fashion, home & shopping blog

I just added these cuties to my Etsy shop.  Beachy whale frames:
In blue.
And pink.

I used my Cricut Splish Splash cartridge to make the whales and their water.  I typed out beach using Word and glued it beneath each whale.  I made a blue one for myself to hang in the bathroom.  The boys love it...and so do I!  Adds just the right touch of beachy charm!

If you're like me, you stock up on tea towels when you go to the dollar store.  I had a few lying around in my craft room and as luck would have it, I had some iron-on transfer paper too.  Put two and two together and you get some cute new towels:
I bought this image off of Etsy (popalicious, 99 cents!) over the weekend.  I spied it on Pinterest (thanks Gina from Shabby Creek Designs!) and thought it was just the cutest thing ever.
Ask my sister Kathy (Creative Home Expressions) and she will agree that we grew up with a lot of whales in our house.  Our dad loves them!  I used regular dollar store towels and simply ironed on the image using the transfer paper.  Then I sewed on some ruffle trim to dress them up a bit.
I had one random towel left (I usually like to make them in pairs), so I thought this mason jar from The Graphics Fairy would work perfectly!  I like the hint of color it gives to the island in my kitchen.

The sun is back out today so hopefully I can get some painting done!
