A few weeks ago, I bought a blank canvas at Hobby Lobby and painted it (click HERE to see the painted canvas before the make-over). Thanks for the encouragement, Nester! I hung it beside my piano, but it just seemed to be lacking something. I stewed over it for a few weeks and finally came up with a solution.
Here's what I did:
- bought a ton of scrapbook paper in patterns/styles that I like or things that represent my interest. i.e. sheet music, mod patterns, typography, natural elements, Christmas sheet music, colors that go well together
- made a template of a flower petal and cut out a bazillion of them
- cut out two circles
- laid the petals around the circles until I liked the pattern
- Mod Podged (is that a word?) them to the canvas
- Presto Change-o!
COOL!!! I've started reading the Nester after you told me about the "Plantie Party" and I saw her canvas posts. Yours is Awesome.
ReplyDeletei love that! i love the colors and rustic backing!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I have 4 canvasses that I covered in a mottled solid color and I have been trying to figure out what to do with them. This looks like the perfect craft to try. Thanks for the inspiration! I am your newest follower. I hope you'll stop by Posed Perfection for a visit and maybe even a follow back. Have a great week!
