When we remolded our house more than 3 years ago, I never quite finished up the family room. Fast forward three years later, we have another kid and needs have changed. I posted about the kids desks a while back during my Back to School Series in August. I spent part of the summer organizing the kids school and art work and creating these cool collages I found on Etsy with images of their larger pieces of artwork. It was so simple! I took a photo of each piece, uploaded them to the website, a waited for the collage image to be emailed to me. She created them in high resolution so they would print nicely in the larger 20 x 20 print.
I also had been wanting to do silhouettes of my 3 kiddos. I kept reading online how easy it was to do. Just not that crafty of a girl. I got the ideas, but not the skills! (or patience) I came across this fun colorful silhouettes also on Etsy. Isn’t Etsy just grand?!!
It then of course took me months to get all these on the wall. I had been really wanting to do a cool art gallery collage, but just didn’t know where to start. I wanted to be able to add to it as well and needed it to start higher on the wall than I typically like to hang art because our piano sits on the same wall. One day I could not stand it any more and just went for it. As we collect special items or handmade things by the kids I’m hoping it will take on a more eclectic look.
For more samples of art wall galleries, you can take a peek at my pintrest board, if you like.
Very cool. Looks great. A great way to accomplish many goals with as simple display.
I absolutely love this. The silhouettes are beautiful!
thank you for stopping by and your sweet comment.
