THRIFTY



Many of you know that I consider myself thrifty. I love a very unique and warm look for my home, but I HATE spending a lot of money (there never seems to be enough anyways). I want people to feel welcome, calm, and loved despite the chaos that might be going on in our home with two little ones. So when I needed wall art for our upstairs bedroom, I had a limited budget. I looked through SEVERAL magazines for inspiration, and came up with the follow for the walls. It provides something very custom and expensive looking... but its really is not. My mom found these frames at a DEEP discount and we removed the prints and glass. We went to our local fabric store and they just happened to have just enough on the precut sale aisle and away I went (there are actually 4 frames in total. One is on the opposite wall with a family portrait that was taken when we had Doodles.) I must say that I LOVE these. This design could be replicated for any room and would be GREAT in a nursery. You could do all first initials, all three initials, the possibilities are endless.








See all of those market totes, I will explain more in my next post... I cannot wait.
