Starting to Decorate


So, I love looking at Etsy for crafting ideas. I found one individual who makes pieces of art by layering paper. I stole that idea and made it my own. I painted each canvas in a lavender color that I thought would compliment the green in the room. I also purchased a set of patterned card stock. I will not bore you with the process but it involved a lot of drawing, cutting, and resizing. I am trying to make the room age appropriate, but also able to grow along with her over the years.

Turtle
Owls
Elephant and Bird
I think the nature theme is coming together.

  4. I LOVE this! You'll have to fill me in on the process when I come up in June. I have two big pieces of canvas that have been sitting here for four years that I don't know what to do with - I would love to make something like this!
