Some bed parts-legs and spindles.
A headboard and a foot board was also included in the stash.
This is the footboard. I cut the little “tab” pieces that formerly fit into the bed posts.
I then used the sprayer to paint several pieces black.
I posted on Facebook asking for suggestions for a sign. Gayla suggested “Always Kiss Me Goodnight”. I have loved that phrase for a long time, so I designed it in my Silhouette program. I used the font Adorable. Available for free download at Dafont.com
And voila! Here it is! I think this would look fabulous over a bed. Not mine of course, since the only one that kisses me goodnight is this little guy . . . 
. . . . and he can’t read!
I love my Silhouette, but it sure is a challenge for me to figure out which phrase I want to use, AND which font to use! I really like the way this one turned out, but I’m sure had I chosen another one I would have loved it too.
Do you have someone to “Always Kiss YOU Goodnight?”
Would you like to see what I made with the matching headboard?

That looks like a good gift for the newlyweds, my friend!
I purchased a vinyl of this saying, cut the words apart and applied it to the risers of my 2nd floor stairway, starting a few steps from the bottom and working up. Since Mike and I are the only ones that ever go upstairs to the bedroom it felt like the right place to put it.
Mike was tickled pink with it, now he always chuckles when he goes up the stairs. ;)
I love it! I've always loved that little quote too - but the boys around here at that age when then would not allow it! You did a beautiful job with yours. I have a Silhouette and love it... just haven't used it much. Guess I'm waiting for the walls to get painted. Have made some great gifts out of old windows with it.
What a great curvy sign! I love that sweet saying and the font is perfect too! It would look just great hanging over a bed!
Mom will be so glad to know you were able to make something so cute out of some of the "goodies" she sent you! :) I LOVE the sign, it turned out adorable! (and I think your little poochie could read it if you want to use it over your bed.) :) That font is beautiful too!
Thanks for sticking my name in the post...always nice to click over here and see my name in "lights"! lol
Love ya girl

Super awesome project! and...I love the story behind it, followed up by the comment just before mine from Missy.;) Nothing beats a great group of people around in support. For what it's worth....I think kisses from that adorable terrier of yours beat out kisses from my hubby!! (Shhh....don't tell him. lol)
Have a great day!
What a great idea. Looks great! You are so clever.
( And it's just the dog for me too : ))
Adorable - question which paint sprayer to you have from Harbor Freight?
What an awesome sign Gail. I really like the font you used also... perfect for that piece.

Very nice job Gail.
I am LOVING all these sins I keep seeing.....I think you just sold me on a Silhouette...I've been eyeing it, but I think now its time to seriously save my pennies so I can get one!!!
You have the best projects, you're such a wonderful inspiration!
You could sell these! I'd buy one. Very unique to use the bed boards. Thanks for sharing the font... it IS adorable! I'd take kisses from your little fur baby. He made me smile, even before coffee :)
Have a good day, Gail.
~Michelle :D
Missy, you are just one creative gal :0) I love stopping by to see what else you've come up with
I have that quote decal'd on my bedroom wall! My hubby remembers more often than I do! :) I guess that was the point of putting it up...
Love the curvy sign. A little reminder is always a good thing! I love the font too. I'm going to go download it now before I forget :)
I love this saying too! Question: did you print the wording on vinyl? Does it go through your printer and you cut it out or are you using a cridut machine? I have seen vinyl rolls but unsure how to use them. If you hand painted it you did an awesome job!
Love the footboard sign! It turned out great!
Love the saying and the font you used! This would make a wonderful wedding gift :) You are getting to be a pro with that machine!
I have always loved this saying and on the footboard it is even more perfect.
Love it. It looks really nice.
I love this saying too! The kids now have a age (again), where they don't mind anymore to give their Mom a goodnight kiss. Hubby never seemed to mind... ;o)
That turned out great! The shape is so cute for a sign, and the font you used looks really pretty on it, like it just fits.
Yup. I have someone to kiss me goodnight. If he can even stay awake that long!
Inspiring project..Thank you.
Your sign turned out beautiful...and what a great idea repurposing a headboard for it!!!
What a great idea! I love this and thank you so much for linking up to my party!
Sweet Gail! You need to find a local shop and sell these. My friend owns a wedidng store in LA and this would sell like hot cakes!
