Do you remember the wall art I showed you in my bedroom?
I told you a little bit about it when I did the "big reveal" of my "Big Girl" ladder bed canopy. You can see the rest of that post...my most popular post X 10!!!...HERE :)
Well, I had so many comments and emails about the details of my little framed art back there...that I decided to do a quick post giving a closer look. I promise you, it's REALLY simple...anybody can whip one of these up in a "jiffy"...
Basically, I just hung a big, fun, "robin's egg" blue, empty...perfectly chippy...frame on the wall.
Then I just grabbed a couple of old paperback books I had purchased out of the .15 bin at the Goodwill, and started tearing out pages.
I used a combination of stencils and stamps to add the letters and symbols with a foam brush and gray acrylic paint.
I think the key is to "mix it up"...tear the pages in different ways and sizes. Keep it fun :)
After I decided the basic arrangement...I used wooden push pins to stick them right onto the wall...yep, it was as easy as that...
...TA DAAAA!!!
I think I'll love it forever and ever...AMEN :)
Hope this helps those of you who were interested!! And in case you are wondering...because a lot you you were...that bedding was something I purchased at Target a few years ago. It was from their "Casual HOME" line...and sad to say, I'm pretty sure I bought it on clearance, because that's how I "roll". Sorry!!
(The bird pillow was also from Target, Dwell Studios for Target...and those cool Mr and Mrs pillows were (again) made by my friend Joan(Signs of the Times, on facebook)

Until next time,
