We had a birthday party last weekend for T/I who are the daughter/son of our friends Dustin and Hope. They bought a cute little house on a lake in Sparta where they plan to spend their summers (they call the place "The Shack"). Since they came from Vegas with relatively little for "The Shack", I thought it would be fun to make some crafty decor for the kids room. So.....I embarked on the project below the evening before the party. Getting a "late start" was not such a good idea but after a long night and an early morning start.....wahhlllaahhh.....the finished product :)
The entire gallery for I's room. I got the canvases in a 2 pack @ Michaels along with some inexpensive craft paint and the letters (which are just MDF). I picked up the wooden frames at the Dollar Tree and then painted them with the craft paint and paint sponges. I then put in some cute coordinating scrapbook paper from HL. I painted and sanded the letter and attached the ribbon (also from HL) with hot melt glue. The last touch were framed photos that I had recently taken of the kids at the lake in one of the pained frames.
T's gallery (whose middle name happens to be that on the canvas :))
