Wall Art



HELLO! As I mentioned in my previous post, I am currently working on sprucing up our basement. It has actually been a lot of fun and even Carson has gotten involved. I love sharing ideas with him, it is even more fun then decorating on my own.


I have decided that on one of our walls I wanted to hang pictures, art, etc. I got some really great ideas from Britt, at A Penny Saved. I decided to try one of her ideas this week, you can see it here (she gives really great directions).


Here is my version....






It is nice because both Carson and I have a last name that starts with the letter "B". I also made one for my sister because that's what you do when you have a sister. = ) The one thing I did a little differently is I layered my buttons up a little more. I bought two pieces of the scrapbooking paper for $1.00, and the buttons for $4.00. I wish I would have had buttons laying around, now I know how hoarding could come in handy (I only kid = ) The frames I already had on hand so those were FREE! It would have cost me even less if I only made one, this project is very affordable and if you have all the supplies could cost you nothing at all!


Hopefully I will have a lot more to share this next week!

  2. LOVE THEM! I have all kinds of ideas of things I want to try. All I need is a little time and money and you may end up with some neat things too! You are the best with a capital "B" I think that is what yours is supposed to stand for and you're covering it up with a last name story.
