I recently did a quick project and while working remembered that I don't think I've ever shared this tutorial with you. This is a method I've been using for years to take large photo prints and give them a faux canvas finish that seals them and gives them some texture. I've found so many great large wall frames at thrift stores and garage sales, but they are often an unusual size and usually don't have glass with them. Glass can be expensive to get cut and installed (even if you DIY it), and often I find I prefer to frame larger photos without glass to avoid the glare it causes. So, this method of making a "faux canvas" photo print is easy to customize the size you need and affordable! For the project, you'll need the frame you want to use, your photo print , a backer board for your photo, spray adhesive , a foam roller and tray , and some Mod Podge . I prefer the Matte finish for this project but if you want a glossier finish there are other op......

SPRING REFRESH PHOTO GALLERY WALL
Today I'm joining a small group of fellow home bloggers hosted by Annie of Most Lovely Things to share a little Spring Refresh project with you. My project isn't specifically related to "Spring", but Spring is always when I get the biggest itch to change things around in the house and my "to-do" project list gets even longer. So, I thought this would be a good opportunity to knock out a project that's been on that list for months! If you're looking for Spring specific ideas, check out my Spring Home Tour from my last post. ...

FIVE FRIDAY FAVORITES
Well Friday sure did come quickly again! Do you have fun weekend plans? The weather in OKC is supposed to be gorgeous this weekend, so I have plans to spray paint alllll the things, spruce up the front porch for Valentine's Day, and finish up a few other projects.

DIY AFFORDABLE LARGE BLACK AND WHITE ARTWORK
When we finished the wood wall in my son's room, it was so pretty that I knew I didn't want much on it to cover it up. Knowing that the upholstered headboard would cover a bit of it, I decided to stick with one large piece of artwork over the bed and call it good. With this project from Life in Grace in mind, I set out to create my own large photo mounted artwork. My son has always loved airplanes, so we went to a local small airport where we could walk right next to the lane where the planes park. We chose a plane we liked and took lots of shots from different angles. After choosing our favorite one, I edited it and made it black and white. Then, I used Jenny's suggestion and took a file of my photo to Fed Ex Office to be copied. They will make an "Engineer's Print" for less than $10. Black and white is the only option, but there are a few size choices, with the largest being about 36x48". The print is on regular paper and isn't c......
