With the most exciting Reno to come, i thought i would share with you something special. My new photo wall.
It was so easy to do, and i just love the results! I originally got the idea from Deanna and instantly knew i had to do it. Well, its taken me months and months, but its finally done :) let me share with you how i did it :
first i bought a whole bunch of canvas' from the Dollar store. They were $1-$2 each. I then painted all the edges black and went around the outside just a little to cover any imperfection or crooked edges on the photos.
Then with a THIN coat of modgepodge on the front of each canvas and applied my photos. Once the pictures were on, i turned them upside down to dry and smoothed out any air bubbles. after the photos were completely dry, add one more THIN layer of modgepodge to the top of the photo to protect it from finger prints etc.

Then it was time to hang (the hardest part) talk about math problems!! anyways i was thanking God for my banker husband which numbers comes very easy!! I laid them out on the living room carpet to get the pattern and placement for each canvas, and then we started to hang
I am so happy with how it turned out, and its such a nice bright way to welcome people in to our home.
Get ready for some MORE reveals!!! Lots of exciting things going on this summer!!!
