Craft Projects? Go!

I didn’t wait long.

I just couldn’t.

After I conquered the stars, I just had to jump right in.

I grabbed a favorite quote from my pinterest board labeled “words on the walls” and gathered what supplies I had on hand.

(By the way, why aren’t the pinterest boards in alphabetical order?  Wouldn’t that make more sense?)

Anyway.

I gathered a piece of foam core we had in the craft closet, red burlap left over from creating a poorly designed but basically usable bed skirt and some cute ribbon.  And glue and scrapbook paper and this crazy spray fixative I found on our shelf that works really well but smells horrible and whose label’s warnings scare me with their carcinogenic concerns.

And in literally no time I had this.

I wandered on to one of those free font websites of which I had never before visited but which I now will be visiting again and again.

I printed out the quote.

Proceeded with a little gluing and pinning.

And in less than the length of time it took to watch that weirdo new show called The River with Kevin, I had created a simple little piece of art for our bedroom.

It’s on the opposite wall of the red burlap/black bird art the kids helped me create a while ago.

And what with the burlap bed skirt and the burlap curtains and the burlap pieces of art, it’s a regular old theme going on in there.
