OK…I posted about the Fall Pinterest Challenge back on 10/23, and what I wanted to do – “Pinterest-piration” if you will. I haven’t forgotten about it – it’s just that Hurricane Sandy happened. Now I’m getting around to posting about it!!
Funny – because the two things I ended up doing were inspired directly from Bower Power and Young House Love. I loved their ideas so much, I decided to duplicate some of my own! 🙂
Here is my version of Young House Love’s Paint Chip Art. I used YHL’s “how-to”, so if you want to duplicate, you can go to Young House Love’s Paint Chip Art post, and there’s a full tutorial. The below picture is a side-by-side comparison – mine is on the right.
Here’s my version of Bower Power’s Knife Art. I also used Bower Power’s “how-to”, so if you want to duplicate, you can go to Bower Power’s Knife Art post, and there’s a full tutorial. The below picture is a side-by-side comparison – mine is on the right. There is going to be a full 4 canvas series that will live above our couch in the living room – and I would have done this during the Hurricane, but I forgot to buy more canvasses. I’ll post an update once it’s done. No worries 🙂
You can go back to Bower Power and Young House Love to see what others did for the Fall Pinterest Challenge!!
Happy DIY’ing!! 🙂
