Thanks Kelly! I have to admit, I was a little worried about it sticking to the wall at first. I did put some test vinyl up for a week though, and it didn’t leave a mark!

Thanks! I have a dishwasher, so I always look forward to doing the dishes! It does add a needed smile in the kitchen after a long day though! I also have a ‘hidden’ smile outside my bathroom – it’s an art piece that say’s “You look nice today”. So that’s what I wake up too, and then I get to see Mario while cooking. It makes me happy.

Awww, thanks Lauren! I have a bad habit of getting in over my head when it comes to taking on big projects without learning through little ones first. Sometimes it turns out great, other times… not so much.

I haven’t had the chance to share this with the gaming community yet, but I might try a few outlets. Thanks for the suggestion!

I’m glad to be here, and excited that tomorrow I’ll *finally* get the chance to read through all the other posts!

Wow, Kristy. This post and this project are just oozing with creativity. I am so impressed, first by your courage to take on such an ambitious project for your first foray into vinyl, second that you thought outside the backsplash in a major way, and three that you created something so true to you and your love of Mario! I grew up playing Nintendo games, so Mario is dear to my heart.

Oh, and if you haven’t done this already, you need to share this project with some Mario fan pages on FB (I’m sure there are some). I have a feeling the Mario fans would be ALL OVER THIS!

Soooo delighted to have you and your creative self with us in The Silhouette Challenge. You’re such an inspiration!

Mine does! Of course, he helped me make it, so he better! I love your ‘lol’ at the end – it’s exactly the kind of response I have every time I step in there now.

Thanks Randi! I’m still getting used to the pop of color in my otherwise washed out kitchen.
