Harry Potter Script Wall

I love to read so putting one of my favorite passages on the wall seemed like a logical step. It was cheap, personalized and took huge amounts of time, but I wouldn't change a thing!

Cut out of Contact Paper (instead of expensive adhesive vinyl) with my Silhouette Cameo and placed on the wall just like you would hang any vinyl saying.

We love it how it turned out and hope you will too!!

    Wow. That's amazing. How did you choose the passage?

    Also, you've probably seen this, and I don't know if it's really correctly attributed, but it's a great sentiment nonetheless:

    "When I'm 80 years old and sitting in my rocking chair, I'll be reading Harry Potter. And my family will say to me, 'After all this time?' And I will say, 'Always.'"

    -Alan Rickman.

    That is so creative. I think you can actually buy stencils for Calligraphy script. Nice job!

    Yep, you certainly can buy script stencils, and I did consider it. I couldn't seem to find the fonts I wanted in a stencil, or if I liked the font, I didn't necessarily love what it said. In the end, the ability to choose exactly what passage I could put on the wall was the deciding factor in choosing this method. Makes it much more personalized for our family.

    And Steve G, my daughter and I brainstormed together for our favoritete passages, and this is the one that won. And I do love Alan Rickman's quote!!

    VERY ATTRACTIVE! STENCILS ARE PRETTY LABOR INTENSIVE, TOO!
