This weekend!

With Mike having been at a conference I have been gearing up for Halloween, and LOVing some good quality pinterest time.  I know....enough already right.  

I was however really excited to see this idea!

Frame a fabric or wallpaper sample.

Because......


It reminded me of one of my favorite "art" walls in my house.  The best part about my little framed DIY art....  they are actually napkins.:)  Yes...napkins.  You can't beat the price of a napkin these days.:)

BuzzFeed came up with a list of 39 ways to create art in your home.  If you click on this link "buzzfeed" you will see the entire list.  Some, actually many, I want to try in my own home.  Like......

Use masking tape to create a geoemetric, abstract painting.

Cut circles out of poster board, spray paint, and glue onto a canvas.

The list goes on and on.......39 different ways to create art.  It is a pretty fantastic link.  

I am posting this as I am listening to Alyssa singing "The sun will come out tommorrow" to the top of her lungs.  She and Mikey are having movie night watching Annie, and loving it:)   Thank goodness for their happy little souls:)

Now I am off for my bed, brownies, icecream and a recorded episode of "project runway".
Yeah for my nights!!!
