Quick way to make new wall artwork

Hello Sweet Friends,

How are you??

Hope you might be having a bit of

 warmer weather too.  We are up to 80

 degrees here in Florida today, and we

are going back into the 60's tomorrow,

so happy about that, as I am not ready

for our Winter Season to be over.....

but the break was nice...and timely

as you will read. lol

I have just been trying to get the

 house back to normal and washing a

 ton of laundry.....as my washer and 

dryer are in the garage and when it

 was so cold..........I did not want to 

visit out there!!  lol  So now all the

 laundry is done but folding the last

 load, so quite happy about that!  

Thought I would share with you 

how I made some quick wall art

today......I have been decorating

the family room in greens, shiny

golds and white with some touches

of robins egg blue.....

So this is how it all started............

This was a picture I wrapped for

 Christmas and it was a subtle herringbone

 pattern in green,  which I used as a table

 runner a few years back, so since I didn't 

have all my wrapping paper out yet, 

 I grabbed it out of my stash and then 

hung some ribbon on it, and it looked

 way better than this picture makes it 

look for sure........lol 

Just a bad picture.!

Here is an upclose shot so you can

see how it really looks...............

It is a very thick good quality paper

as well,  so does not tear easily

which is very helpful.....

Since we happened on a new picture for 

over the fireplace,  I wanted this wall to

 have sort of a similar look, so kept thinking

what could I do with this wrapped picture

cause it would go....but what could I

do to make it look like art work.........

Well, after praying about it, I believe

 the Lord gave me an idea.........

I could string botanical prints on it......

So I went to google images and looked

for some,  but had trouble finding the

right size prints,  and then came upon

these pear prints......3 of them as you

will see below...

So I printed them all......

with the intentions of running jute 

across and pinning them on with tiny

 clothes pins, had the twine and thought

 I had the clothes pins, but can not find 

them anywhere,  so since I am not

wanting to slow down my progress,

just decided...................

to tape them on...........so I rolled  large

 pcs. of masking tape and stuck it on

the back and stuck them on the wrapping

paper.....figured I can always change it 

later if I find my lil pins.

So was happy with the way it turned out,

it solved my problem and has a unique

look to it, and now I can 

move on.............lol

but before I did I figured I should do 

a little something in this corner to make 

it go together as well......

So that's my story and I am

 sticking to it...........lol

Hope you are having a good week

so far.......

Thanks for dropping by.

Love, Hugs and 

End of January Blessings,

Nellie
