I’ve been working on the guest room/nursery recently, and I wanted to frame a quote to go above the bed (which we’ll switch to be the crib once Maya is in her own room). Since Maya is named after Maya Angelou, it only made sense to choose one of her bits of wisdom for our baby girl’s decor. The quote we chose talks about singing birds, and I wanted to incorporate the theme onto the frame. I cut out a couple of birds from vinyl, and applied them to a nice oval frame from Cut It Out for a nice contrast and visual highlight.
The frames come without glass, so you simply slip your photo or artwork into the frame and use the already-cut slot for hanging it up. And there’s even a slot for hanging the frame (horizontally or vertically) routed into the back of the frame.
Here it is with the quote framed and hung above the bed. It really is a great frame! Now I want one for the other girls’ room…and my room!
I love everything about your customizations. The quote, the colors, the birds: brilliant.
Thanks, Zanny! I didn’t have time to consult my favorite designer, but I love how it turned out. 😉
That is such an awesome idea !
Thanks for the chance to win
Hope all is good in your world …
OOps forgot the circle would be my choice
Thanks, Diana. Things are good here. We’re blessed. And I love a good classic circle!
I love the Balboa frame! It would be perfect in my classroom to show off student work or the rules!
I love the guest room/ Maya’s room! I need or read how you did the vinyl for the wal!
I love the Balboa too. It’s a fun shape.
I think I would get the Grace Oval frame. Your quote frame turned out lovely. Maya is super cute too. I’ve been looking at a few picture of her. I love the one where she is still in the hospital but she has a great big smile on her face.
Thanks Kathleen! I love that one in the hospital too…she’s such little cutie! The Grace Oval frame is such an interesting shape!

Thanks, Dorothy!
I love the oval frame you chose! And the pairing with the quote and the other frames is just perfect!
Thanks, Ashley! I love how everything turned out.
Their frames are so cute! I love what you did with yours!
They really do have the best frames! Thanks, Heidi!
I totally want one of the curvy funky quirky ones! These look great, I need to order some! Thanks for the review!
There are so many curvy fun shapes–I want one of each!
I really like the Grace Oval Frame in 8 x 10 but also the smaller ones for a collage! And I think also I would love the one in the post and do something similar!
I’d love to do a collage too, Tina. They’re so much fun!
Great arrangement and colors. I love the story about Maya/Maya Angelou! Sweet quote! 🙂
Thank you, Jillene! I love it when there’s a little meaning behind decor. 🙂
Love the quote you chose and the shape is perfect!
Thank you, Lindsay! I went through so many quotes before settling on this one. Although I think I could pepper my house with framed maya Angelou quotes…think anyone would notice the trend?
I love that quote and I totally dig that frame! I love working with raw frames so that you get to start from scratch 🙂
Me too, Randi! And since this company is only 30 minutes away from me, I could be in big trouble. 🙂
I love what you did with your frame! The paint, the quote…love it all!
Thanks, Albion. I spent a lot of time thinking about this project, so I’m glad it all turned out the way it did.
This look great!!
Thanks, Kaysi!
So pretty, Lisa! Perfection!
Thank you, Kristi! That’s quite the compliment!
i would love the oval double layer in eleven by fourteen
I love ovals! The double layer is great too.
Cool room! 🙂
Thanks, Amy! It’s my favorite room in the house.
I must me lacking in imagination, but I really like the oval one you had. 🙂 so pretty–such a neat way to display a quote. I don’t know if I could decide on A quote…I’d have to switch them out sometimes.
The room is lovely too, btw.
I would choose the Newport – 8×10 Double Layer!
Wow, I love what you did with this…so pretty! Thanks for sharing such a cute idea with our frames! xoxo
