DIY Wall Art

If you want some art for your house and you have an idea, why not try painting it yourself? If you are no artist, do you have a friend that paints?

I told my husband that I wanted a huge Chrysanthemum for our bedroom. I looked at prices of prints that were 20 x 24 and couldn't believe my eyes. Over $150 for a print and I wasn't in love with the picture which means that I would be wasting my money.

We looked at pictures of chrysanthemums online to get an idea of what we were looking for. Then, like most projects, something else came up and I completely forgot this idea until Jeff gave me this for our 4th anniversary present:




I do have on hand an amazing, talented, artistic husband but I encourage you to go out there and try painting something for your walls.

By the way, looking at this can you guess that he made and stretched the canvas himself with stuff we had lying around the basement? That ultra-resourceful husband of mine!

It is so beautiful and so priceless to me!
