More Home Decor

I bought some little canvases at one of the craft stores.

They were on sale.

Very cheap.

Unfortunately  they were coated with something that water wouldn't penetrate.

Solution....

I cut watercolor paper to fit,

did a watercolor wash on the background,

stamped and painted the images.

I hope the paper sticks for a long time.

Since little things on the table end up getting knocked off,

I hung them in the dining room

opposite this art.

What do you think?

They actually hang straight.

I'm going to take them over to 

Simon Says Wednesday Challenge

ANYTHING GOES

and

Simon Says Monday Challenge

NO ORDINARY PAPER

I used watercolor paper on the canvas.

I'm so glad you could stop by.

I appreciate all your comments.

I'll catch up to you very soon.

I hope....

Enjoy!

Dressing up the Home

You may remember that I met up with my blogging friends,

Darnell & Mary last month.

They were both so generous bestowing wonderful stamping gifts on me.

Darnell gave me some K and Company vellum adornments

and I've had a good time with them.

Have a look....

As I told Darnell, I'd never figured out what I wanted to put on the walls in my dining room.

Recently I found these frames and 2 of the vellum adornments fit perfectly.

I've adhered them to some Naturals Ivory (SU) cardstock and place them in the frames.

The cardstock is an almost perfect match for the walls so they look like

flowers pressed between glass.

I love the more finished look to my dining room.

Most of all, I love remembering the good time we had together.

 and now I have a reminder every time I walk through my dining room.

Thanks for the visit,

Enjoy!
