Hey Everyone,
I really need to apologise for the shocking quality of these photos and the lack of a "how to".
I think I was so excited to be doing this little makeover that I totally forgot to take photos...
Anyway moving right along..... I had this canvas above the dining table - I think I'm kinda done with Frangipani flowers in the living area.
I knew I needed some art in our bedroom as the walls are pretty bare.
The "theme" for our bedroom is hearts and when I made over the toy test into a cupboard and used a stencil type stamp on the front door - I decided to use the same heart to stamp onto the canvas.
This is where I stopped taking photos!!
So pretend you are following me when I say all I did was tape sections of the canvas using the blocks already on it for a guideline. Painted each section and then stamped the heart in a contrasting colour on to each section.
Ta-daaaa!
Then no matter how many photos I took of the canvas up on the wall I could NOT get a good picture.
So out of sheer frustration - I'm letting it go and saying - trust me, it looks really good in our room
Take care

Natalie, I have the same problem, my photos never do justice. I like the variation of hearts! It's lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sherry - I just couldnt get a good angle and the light wasnt cooperating either
DeleteAhhhh..if I only had a dime for every time I forgot to take a photo!!! Nat, I recognized that heart right away! I love it on your cupboard and it looks great on your wall! What a fun project!
ReplyDeleteThanks Danni. xxx
DeleteThe colors are so pretty!!!
ReplyDeleteThe colours of our room - its so tiny so I need to have bright colours. Thanks Heather
DeleteThat is so cute ~ great idea! I have a painting above my sofa in our living room that I am NOT a fan of. It was suppose to be temporary, just filling the large empty space. 7 years later, it's still there and I have yet to find anything I love enough to buy. I have tried to think of ways to up-cycle/re-do...maybe I can do something like this! Thanks for the inspiration!!! To be continued...:O)
ReplyDeleteI'm going to paint the 3 canvases above our sofa Mary - I'm tired of them xx
DeleteFeel better by looking at my crappy photography! They are really pretty!
