Paint Chips

So I after My Post earlier this week my sister found this on Paper Crave and passed it along. Its wall art created by Allison Patrick out of paint swatches. I LOVE IT! its so simple but so elegant, and I can't imagin it would be too hard to re-create. Thanks Lyndsey!

I am finally thinking about how I want to decorate my bedroom. My bedroom is one of the very last things on my list. No one else is really going to see much of it except my husband and I so why waste the money?

I have been trying to think of some kind of cool art that I could create on my own to place above our headboard. I decided that I wanted to do a typography piece but nothing I thought of really struck me. Then today I was catching up on A Cup Of Jo and saw this! I LOVE IT!! Stay tuned and you might see me make my own version!

I got this idea from my sister a while back- Her mother-in-law made one for her and when I saw it I HAD to make one for myself! Its actually pretty easy to make so if your short on time or feel you weren't blessed with a creative "gene" like my mom likes to say- this is a craft for you!

What you need:

Hot glue gun- and glue- duh

An empty picture frame

Some type of screen- I found this plastic kind at a craft store near my house but you can also use the same screen material they use for window screens (you can get it at a hardware store) just depends what kind of look you are going for

Simply cut the screen to fit inside the back of the frame, then hot glue the edges of the frame and place screen over it. The hot glue doesn't need to look pretty- I just globbed mine on as you can see- it just has to make it stick and not go around the edges of the frame.

Ta Dah!!!
