Paint chip art from +Young House Love book!! Go get their book SERIOUSLY.. it is so inspirational! I incorporated all my colors and plan on putting together a mini frame wall in our living room on the far wall. The walls are blank and I cant wait to put some nails in them! It's really easy just decide on how big you want the strips, I did 1/4 inch. I really wanted the Chevron pattern so I just went for it and I think it turned out great! If I haven't learned anything its "Do what you love!". 

Buy a cute frame and some poster board and get to work! Oh and by the way all I used was scissors, a ruler, and a glue stick.

Puppy silhouette 

I dug out an old picture from one of our photo albums of our beloved pup and very carefully cut out her body. I originally wanted to do a white background with black silhouette but changed my mind because that was so plain. I found green card stock in some of my scrapbook stuff and thought how CUTE! So I decided to do her body in white.

I flipped over my picture and traced it on the white card stock, cut it out then glued it down. I love how simple it was! Miley is such a big part of our family so I had to incorporate her into our frame wall.

She's so damn cute! We have a love hate relationship..LOL She annoys the crap out of me some days and is my snuggle buddy other days.

Travels

We snagged this adorable print in St. Martin on our last trip in April of a courthouse already matted and it fit perfect for our frame wall. We stopped in this little corner store looking for Aloe vera because I was FRYED from the day before in St Lucia and couldn't resist! I mean look at those colors.

Scrabble Art

This is so Pinterest Inspired here! I thought what an AWESOME way to display our little family in a unique way! I price checked at Walmart and Target for Scrabble after deciding I would get more letters that way versus buying the letters off eBay. I ended up grabbing it at target for $17.99. I picked up a sheet of card stock from Hobby Lobby for .50. Then it was all about placement, we had already used our trusty ruler to pencil in straight lines  and glue down the letters! We used regular ole super glue to secure the letters! It was so easy and QUICK the whole thing only took about 20 mins. I think I will end up putting this in a white frame {hello ikea} but it will work for now. It makes me smile every time I look at it :)

Semi Finished mini frame collage

I dont know what it is about me but I cant ever finish a frame wall...their's ALWAYS one frame missing. We did end up adding this huge frame at the bottom right we found in our attic with my beautiful baby! She had school pictures and it was so adorable not to include. Im a sucker for piggy tails and paper lanterns!! Im ecstatic overall the shape is all I was hoping for and the hubby loved it too{believe it or not since he hung all the pictures}. I swear I would cover every wall with frames if I could!

 I will fill that last frame if it kills me. It's a work in progress im just tore because I want to paint some of the frame so they flow better. Any suggestions?  

Pinterest Inspired Art here! {super cute!} 

We made this little guy back in 2011 when I was pregnant with Kallie and my husband was away on business. I needed something to occupy my hands and her nursery was a little bare. I got the idea while surfing pinterest. I thought for a second about buying it off etsy because of course they had it there for $35.00. But I just knew I could replicate it for cheap so me and michelle made a trip to Hobby Lobby, buttons of all cute-sty colors! 

Pink, Purple,Orange, Green, Yellow and Blue...LOVE them all!! They all matched her bedding so I grabbed them all in one pack for about $4, the 14X12 styrofoam was $8.

I found the perfect fabric to cover the Styrofoam with a bird/branch pattern for $5 and ribbon for $3. Now I was ready to start, I already had my glue gun so here we go. I trimmed the fabric to fit the styrofoam including the sides. Lay the fabric face down{make sure your straight} and secured it with hot glue around the edges. So here goes nothing.. Figure out the size of you want and free hand your letter.

I LOVE cursive initials so that was the obvious choice. I started from the middle of the letter to make sure I was centered using random colors and layered buttons on top for depth readjusting as I went. It was actually fun and stupid simple. 

Here is the finished product that im pretty proud of!For the finishing touch I added the ribbon{in a Watermelon Pink} around the edges and as a loop to hang it. So to sum it up I spent $20 and It was HANDMADE by mommy!
