Super Project Weekend

I didn't partake in the super bowl festivities last weekend. But, I did craft up a super storm.

Nathan and I have had 2 blank canvases for a long time - like since we moved in to our current house back in September. We painted them teal to match the bird in a painting we had in our room and then did nothing else to them. Until I pinned this painting from Etsy and recreated it myself!


This is what I ended up with. Needs some tweaking, but it's certainly better than blank teal canvases.


Then, I went to JoAnn Fabrics and picked up some pretty fabric, ribbon, and upholstery tacks. I used a broken table top and some left over batting to create this....


Trying to hammer the tacks caused me to say a few choice words. But, after all but but 2 of the 24 tacks in the box and a little help from Nathan, we hung my French Picture Board up and I must say, it looks fab!
