Hello! Since I have had frames and walls on my mind lately -- I figured I was hanging stuff anyway so I might as well knock it out downstairs too! You will recognize most of these from our basement playroom in our Virginia home.

The “order here” sign was a quickie that I painted from some scrap wood and craft paint. I was totally going to try to DIY a lighted arrow but my sister Kerri did one and said NO! it takes forever! So I was thrilled to find this one on clearance at Bed, Bath & Beyond for $10.
