More Color

In a continuing attempt to bring color into my home,

I turned pretty fabric into "artwork".

I appliqued the bird onto the blue fabric,

covered a canvas board with the fabric,

and perched it on a blank wall in my living room.

Next I plan on coving the background of my bookshelf with some bright fabric...I just need to find the right fabric.

Color and Silhouette

There are too many neutral (brown) tones in my home, so I am working on some projects to bring in color.

I googled "tree silhouettes" to find a tree I liked. I am a tree fan. I think they are pretty.

Trees and letters - they are so iconic and so lovely.

I also like the simplicity of a two-tone silhouette.

I printed it on cardstock so that you can't see the printer ink on the other side.

Then - the most fun, least tedious thing you will ever do - cut out the tree. All those crazy leaves.

Yeah.

Then I mod podged it onto a colorful scrapebook page.

Frame and display.

A nice little splash of color.

Akk. Don't look too close. It's not perfect.

Stay tuned for more home-colorfying projects.
