id rather live a life of oh wells than what ifs.

anybody who has not discovered the fabulous world of pinterest.com, i suggest you visit it immediately. i have an account and im in love with it. now, this post is not to persuade, but i want to show you something(s) i found on there. the pictures are my versions that i made with a friend. i'd also like to point out that i am not a crafty person, so you can see the flaws in the crafts, but they add character. enjoy my pinterest obsession & try them for yourself! 

project 1:

requires: 
  • a canvas board
  • paint color of your choice
  • alphabet stickers
  • an inspiring quote
  • sponge brushes
directions: 
  1. spell out your quote onto the canvas using the stickers
  2. rub each one individually to make sure they stick(important!)
  3. brush the paint over the stickers and allow to dry
  4. peel the stickers off to reveal the canvas quote! 


project 2:

requires:
  •  canvas board
  • pack of crayons ( # of crayons depends on the size of board)
  • hot glue gun
  • hair dryer
directions:
  1. arrange crayons in color order, lightest to darkest
  2. hot glue them to the top of the canvas, one by one
  3. blow dry the crayons until the wax melts
  4. allow to dry and harden 

 xoxo,

elle
