This project is slightly old news, but I thought I would share none the less. I made some simple art in frames for my nieces birthday in August. I got some frames and a Bambi book from a thrift store for under $2. I had some off white spray paint in my supplies, and transformed some outdated frames into a nice fresh white, using the glass as my template for size I cut out two cute pictures from my nieces favorite book (at least for now). Normally I feel really bad about cutting up books, but this had some crayon artwork, and its my second copy of this book. I have bought so many books to make children's art, but chickened out when it came to cutting the book up, maybe this is the start of more!
before the paint
after!
I have a busy october/november ahead filled with a market or two, new prototypes, setting up a studio in a new house, starting a knitting business, and of course more birthday and christmas presents. So stay tuned! The blog should be busy in the next few months too!
The girls loved these picture rachel. Actually, Marin always says goodnight to bambi every evening as i'm putting on her pajamas :) They are well loved.
