When my roommate moved out in the middle of 2011, I made a few changes around the condo. Nothing major, but I added some of my own personal touches. And now, I'm at it again and I have to tell you, decorating is FUN.
I started out with a big, empty wall. I knew I wanted to do a picture frame collage (thank you Pinterest) but wasn't sure which frames, which pictures, etc. I started grabbing random things I've collected over the years and putting them in a pile on the floor. Last week I finally got tired of said pile and grabbed a glass bottle of wine and decided to do something with it. I'd say the final product turned out better than I hoped! The pictures below tell the story of how I did the project, but honestly it was super easy. All you need is wax paper, tape (painters and scotch), a sharpie (try blue or black!), nails and a hammer.
Lay out your design on the floor, trace it onto wax paper, and then hang on the wall. If you are patient, leave it up for a few days. If you are not (I am not), leave it up for a few minutes.
I am missing 3 pictures for the bottom frame, but I know exactly which ones I am going to put in there.
Some of my favorite people & memories from 2011.
That looks great, and it will look even better once you get those awesome pictures in there!
ReplyDeleteFun! I need to be better about hanging pictures, decor, etc. when I think of it, rather than letting it all pile up and then being overwhelmed and never doing anything about it. Your wall looks great!
