Make a Chore Chart with Vinyl Lettering

Do you ever get frustrated that your kids aren't doing their chores, or maybe your husband isn't pulling his weight. Well, put an end to the haggling over who does what around your house with a family chore chart. This chart, made with a wooden sign blank, magnets, sheet metal, and vinyl lettering will help keep your family chores lined out. Also, you can keep things mixed up by rotating chores each week. Furthermore, you can customize the chart and the number of chores to match your family, and number of kids. You'll never need to ask "who's turn is it to take out the trash?" again. Simply look at the chart and you'll know exactly who's neglecting their chores.

Decorative Tiles Are Easy to Create with Vinyl Lettering

If you've never seen a home decor (sometimes called decorative tiles ), you'll be amazed at what a great home decor item a decorative tile is. They also make great gifts, and best of all they're inexpensive, and simple to create using some custom vinyl lettering. The vinyl letters are pre-spaced, so no need to painstakingly apply them one at a time. Simply place the letters onto the tile using the easy to follow instructions, then spray a couple of coats of clear coat spray, and you have a decorative piece that will last generations.

Decorative tiles also make great wedding gifts because they're very unique. Every couple gets a few blenders, several toasters, and a bunch of other useless gadgets that nobody can use. So, why not give the couple something unique that they'll cherish for years to come. With vinyl lettering from Wall Stamps, you can create anything you can imagine.
