House Rules


Just a quick one today, I've been away for a few days, spending time with some of my family, and what a lovely time I've had. Before I went one of my regular customers asked if I could do a 'House Rules' list. She decided  what she wanted written on the list and she wanted it in a frame, therefore having the option of of it either standing on a shelf or hanging on the wall.

House Rules

I'm going to do a few more of these with different wording and a variety of themes and I will try them out at my Craft Fairs, I was thinking of a Circus theme, a Jungle theme and maybe a Boating Seaside theme and what about a Daisy, Toadstool, Butterfly type theme, what theme would you like to see? and what would you have as your main House Rule?

I'm going to pop my link over at  Wendy's blog as part of her Handmade Monday Linky Thingy Wotsit, I hope you can join me, it's a great way of checking out lots of other great blogs. 

Take care

  2. Would be great as a permanent reminder in a classroom too. 'Class rules' Very original and as always very lovely

  3. My house rule would be 'Shut The Door' my dad has a habit of leaving it open and letting the heat out.
    The plaques are a great idea, I love the little pictures you have done.

  4. My house rule would be "Wash the milk bottles out". Since these are house rules, a theme could be based around a street of houses.

  5. Very novel. Could have done with one of those when my lot were growing up. Love the choice of rules too. Beautifully executed all round.

  9. This is a great idea. I had something like that in my classroom but I wish I'd had it in the house when I was raising my boys! I love Pamela's idea! Very cute! :)

  11. It looks fantastic, I can't wait to see the other themes too. I reckon they'll go down a storm at craft fairs. x

  12. Oh Jan - this is lovely. I love Redneedle's idea for rules in the classroom - no sniffing, no texting, no earphones, listen when the teacher's explaining something, remember your notebook, textbook, pen and homework - shall I go on??? You'd never guess that I'm a teacher now would you? At home, it would have to be 'Put the lids back on', use the half tin of beans that are in the fridge and let the dogs out! Have fun!!!

  13. My house rule would be 'Put your cups in the dishwasher' - it drives me mad when they are just left on the side right next to it!

  16. Like the framed rules, very unique. There's got to be a christmas theme - 'Be good for Santa'.

  18. Nice idea. I should get a custom set for the hubbie!!!!

  19. I could do with one of those for my 'grown-up' kids who are still here - but there'd be so many rules, I wouldn't be able to find a big enough frame! The final rule would be 'Please don't ignore the Rules!!'

  20. I like it. There's an endless variation and I love how these could be personalised to any family.
