Vintage Moms

This post is dedicated to our vintage moms, and to the vintage moms we will become.



Vintage Moms





My own beautiful vintage mom turned 80 this last winter!  This pattern is from a set of vintage 40's or 50's transfer patterns that my aunt had.  I just love the designs!




You will need:
Chalkboard
Pattern
Transfer Paper
Stylus
Chalk marker
Chalk



I wanted to keep the design as original as possible, so I didn't alter the pattern.  I used the chalk markers because I want to keep it for awhile and I didn't want it to smudge.

First decide the position of your pattern.  Then place the transfer paper down with the chalk side of the transfer paper against the chalkboard and place your pattern on top.


Next, use your stylus to trace the pattern.


Then, trace over the chalk pattern with a chalkboard marker.

As you can see, I did my design in sections.

I just love the vintage look!


Thanks so much for stopping by!

    This is so wonderful - my mother had so many of these transfers she used. I loved using some of them as well. But, I love your idea of putting them on a chalkboard - so cute. Thank you so much for sharing at Share It One More Time. Cathy
