Looking for something to jazz up that office space of yours? Or maybe you want to create a custom art piece for a friend or significant other (you’re so thoughtful). Then today’s your lucky day! I’ve got four spectacularly lovely—sure to blow your mind—customizable vintage prints (wow, that’s a mouthful). But seriously, they are pretty cool. See for yourself!
See, didn’t I tell ya’ (nudge nudge)?
I have a confession to make: until last week, I had never seen an Audrey Hepburn movie (*gasp*). I know, I know, I’ve been living under a rock with this blog being my only access to the outside world. But, last week my husband talked me into watching My Fair Lady. I resisted at first because I know that old movies tend to be slow paced, and so sometimes I lose patience with them. Also, I’m not the biggest fan of musicals in the whole world, but he promised me that I would like it. So, we watched it together, and I was pleased to find that I LOVED it! I thought it was so clever and funny, a little long, but really entertaining!
After how much I liked My Fair Lady, I thought it would be fun to try another Audrey Hepburn movie. My hubby and I checked out Sabrina from the local library; neither of us had seen it before, and we both loved every second of it! It was lighthearted, witty, and the costumes were, of course, beautiful!
What does this have to do with anything, you ask? Well, I was getting to that part.
When I was digging for inspiration for today’s designs, I just couldn’t stop thinking about those movies, and the word “vintage” kept coming to mind. So, that’s why I decided to put a vintage spin on today’s printable designs.
As you probably noticed from the title, these designs are customizable! That means that you can alter the text on each of these prints to suit your needs. Simply open the pdf in Adobe Acrobat (if you don’t have the program, you can download it for free), select the field you want to edit, and type away.
These babies are perfect for gallery walls, office decor, wedding or anniversary gifts, and a whole slew of other creative uses I’m sure I haven’t even thought of.
Now that I’m on an old movie kick, you might see even more vintage freebies headed your way! What Audrey Hepburn movie do you suggest I watch next?

Those are awesome, and I’d love to know when / if you ever create one with the Seattle Temple in the background! (that’s where we were sealed.) Love your blog!
