Design on a Dime


So I have talked about my need for more creative indevors. I just finished making some cute little star pictures for Landon's room so I thought I would share my latest attempt at being creative. I also thought I would share some pictures I made for Madie and Ethan's room as well. I called the post Design on a Dime, because all of the pictures were so cheap and easy to make and I am all about easy.

Here are the cute star pictures. I bought these square canvases at my local craft store, then I painted them the colors of choice and had a friend in my ward make me the stars with her vinyl lettering machine. I think they turned out awesome and they match the colors in his room perfectly. Inexpensive and custom.

These next two pictures were so easy I can't stand it, but I love the idea. I found these frames for like super cheap at a craft blowout sale (keep your eyes peeled for cheap frames). I didn't know what I would use them for when I bought them, but they were black and matted and cheap, so I knew I would find a use for them. All I did was take some fabric squares of the fabric I used to make the nursery bedding (framing cute patterned paper works too) and framed them. Could it be any easier? I think it is simple, but really cute. They hang on either side of the window.


These next wo pictures are from Ethan and Madie's room. I found these frames with matts for super cheap at Target (on clearance). I found papers that matched their rooms and then I used chip board letters and flowers and put them in the frames. They were easy to make and I think they are pretty cute.
