Meditation Room Decor - Creative Do Not Disturb or Shhh Signs

Meditation room décor has grown in popularity and is now a regularly requested door sign theme for me. I've also become very interested in the topic and recently thought, "I need to create a space in my house so I can meditate without interruption." This idea, in turn, reminded me about this theme of décor and how I should share it with my readers. While I've been painting these types of signs for a while now most of them have been in recent years.

I'm pretty sure this door sign is the first meditation themed sign I painted...Jacqueline must have liked to meditate with her dogs!

This next sign was based on a larger 18"x24" painting I created a few years ago that looked like a rising sun....

My customer asked if I had ever created any designs that had a meditation theme to it. I showed him a photo of this painting and he felt it fit the theme he was looking for. He requested I use that same design for the background of this door sign...

And here's another small door hanger I wanted to share. With this sign the customer requested a peaceful mountain scene. I've done many of those over the years so that was an easy request to fill. I love painting mountains! This meditating sign is also a popular image that has been repinned several times from one of my Pinterest boards...

And, finally, I wanted to share this sign. Peaceful ocean breezes, waves rolling off the sea...what a way to relax and clear your mind!

Okay, time to get myself back to painting. But...hmmmmm...now that I've gotten myself in the mode maybe I'll take a few minutes to meditate first! I'll be sharing more with you soon! Until then,

Railroad and Train Themed Boys Room Decor

Hello! Yes, it's been a while since I last posted. So much going on with my family as we are getting ready to send our second child off to college next fall. It's been a long process as she is planning to major in musical theatre. Pursuing this major entails that your child must first apply to the school and get accepted academically. Then the student has to wait through the audition process. This takes time and can be very nerve wracking. She is pretty sure what school she'll be attending, but nothing is etched in stone yet. Soon though we hope!

Meanwhile, back in the studio...

I've been working away over the past few months I just didn't make my blog a priority. Bad, bad, bad, I know! But I'm back and ready to go!

In looking over my blog posts over the years I don't think I've ever shared one of the most popular themes for boys rooms...the railroad train theme! This surprises me because this is such a popular theme that doesn't ever lose it's steam. Lots of little boys have a huge fascination with trains--I know both of my boys did. We had so many train toy sets it was crazy. We constantly stepped over and tripped over train pieces. But it was also fun to build the train tracks with them. Lots of fun memories!

I've sold many train station themed name signs and growth charts all of which sold in large quantities. It doesn't really matter what design you like better they are all big sellers! All you need to do is pick the design you like the most, tell me your color scheme choices, how you'd like your item personalized and we're all set. Here are a few sample photos...

These two designs are our biggest sellers...

And, yes, we can even make a train themed item for a little girl! Here's a growth chart for a new born baby girl that also includes animals taking a ride.

Here's one I love...the colors are so fun and vibrant!

And here's another big seller...the vintage train design in our 7"x9" wall plaque...

These are only a few samples. I've painted lots of lots of train designs so if you don't see something you like please let me know. I will be glad to share more photos with you via email and we can work together to come up with something unique just for you.

I must be getting back to work now...lots of orders in front of me! I'll be sharing more pictures soon...until then,
