picture frames & shelf re-do.

I have been slowly working on some things around the house.
month to month-- room to room, today I tackled the girls' room and it looks awesome!
I wanted to put some fun picture frames on their walls
-but all I had were black frames [they came in a pack from Urban Outfitters for cheap!]-
I found a book of cardstock paper in the clearance aisle at JoAnn Fabrics- so I just traced the frames and glued [tacky glue] the paper on.


My little at home photo printer doesn't print larger than a 4x6 but I wanted to use these frames, so I found a sheet of linen and glued the pictures on it for a nice background.
I love the way it turned out, I love the texture it gave the look.


I also pulled this white shelf out of the closet- cleaned it off & gave it a few fresh coats of spray paint.

after:

--I was going to use fabric on the back of the shelf but decided to use the cardstock- I love the patterns & colors- I can't wait to put it all together tomorrow.

I'm sure Josephine wouldn't appreciate me banging around while she is trying to sleep :]

I moved some things around in their room- put their clothes drawers in their closet to give them more space to have a little play are in there too. I love the feeling at the end of the day like I got so much accomplished!!

xo.
