DIY Wall Art for Master Bedroom

      As you will see over the next several posts/months, Im on a decorating kick.  I am loving the fun DIY projects, that give the home very personal touches  

   Today I will tell you about my fun wall art  pieces:) 

  This is a stretch canvas I had here at the house.   I used basic acrylic craft paint and painted " 0 7" and then " 1 9" for my husband and I's wedding anniversary.  The month and day.   Then decided to add the year and our last name.  I was inspired by a post I saw on line that was only the 4 numbers.  I like the extra touch and added the color in back. 

NEXT:

 I did wooden letters, with a lovenote decoupage and then set on a plain white canvas.  These are our first name initials: N and S and then a separate canvas with our last name initial R   

I first painted the wood letters black and then covered them with a love note.  

and I attached basic ribbon to the back so they will hang:) 

I will post pictures when they are in our room, as we are redecorating over the next few weeks.   You will LOVE my upcoming post of my DIY dresser/nightstands that Im painting   . . . 

Oceanside Ca secret treasure

   On a recent trip to beautiful Oceanside California, I had the pleasure of visiting the weekly Farmer's Market. I quickly came across a very well decorated booth with such beautiful and unique jewelry. 

Ruth Deakins has the most amazing pieces, TypeWritterTransformations.   She has antique type writters, in which she hand places your letter into a necklace, keychains and much more.   She is not only a very kind and artistic woman, but a very generous and creative person.   I bought a necklace

And was given this cool card to go along with it. 

I also received 

This beauty

Her cards are even amazing

 

Her booth was so beautiful and I couldnt wait to share her with everyone possible. 

Please visit her if your EVER in Oceanside or email/call to purchase. 

Her daughter also has a new company worth mentioning:

Ruth, Thank you again for everything. My necklace is a treaure not only for the memories but as an admiration to your amazing work, beautiful pieces but also how very kind and generous you are. I wish you the very best!!

A pick me up

    Even during our trials and very difficult times in life, there is hope and faith. 

Exodus 15:2 The LORD is my strength and my song, and he has become my salvation; this is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him.
