Since the move I have been looking for just the right thing to go over our bed! I wanted to put up some vinyl lettering, but I never came up with the right quote. So here is my boring wall. I know, I need to get rid of the wallpaper, but I don't know what I want to do their either. It isn't a huge room. I love the room for 3 seasons because I can open up the sliding door and it looks out on my flower garden, so I want it to have a very peaceful feel! Anyhoo, I decided that I needed to stop looking for the perfect thing (it's been 18 months) and at least put up something to make it feel like home!
So I found this lovely canvas wall hanging at Hobby Lobby! For some reason it was 66% off! I thought that I would take it home and paint it and try to come up with something cute.
So, I painted it brown, added some ribbon and did a little stenciling on it! I thought it turned out pretty cute and so I decided to go ahead and make 2 more!
I decided that the real message I wanted out of the vinyl was just - I love you - so I stenciled on "love you"!
It actually looks better then it does in the picture. I like it, and at least there is something on the wall! It might not stay there forever, but for under $10 it can stay up on the wall and give me a sense of accomplishment.

Seriously--BEAUTIFUL! I wish I was that talented! Someday the talent gene will show up in my DNA but for right now it is dormant!
