We finally decided on a theme for Monkey's new bedroom. I have a ton of pictures to post but first I will start off with my art project/wall art. Target has an adorable canvas photo of two owls on a branch but they wanted $39.99 for it! And it wasn't exactly what I was looking for anyway. So I decided to do something myself! (of course, right!)
First we bought wall decals from Target. The theme is "Love N Nature" by Circo. Somewhere around $15 for the roll of decals. Then I went to Michael's who happens to have canvas on sale 2 packs are B1G1 Free! How much better luck could I get? So I bought 4 canvas size 11" x 14" for only $7.99 (plus tax). I have some acrylic paint in my stash of art supplies for reasons I'm not really sure of since I don't have much artistic ability. I painted two canvas pink and two green and then cut out the decals so I could arrange them how I wanted before they stuck. My wonderful hubby helped me decide on the arrangement and...drumroll please....
Ta-da! Wall art for around $23!
Here come some close ups:
Have to give credit to my hubby for this one of the birdies kissing. I wouldn't have thought of it and I think it might be my favorite one!
love it! :)
ReplyDeleteHow did you get the decals to stay on the canvas? Love the idea - great work :)
