A couple months ago I got a blog makeover from the amazing Jenna.
During the process, I created the image of the faux bamboo chair for my header.
It was pretty easy and I loved doing it.
Since I am in the market for some art for my office space, I decided to create a couple more chair images.
I was inspired by Ambers chair art, how great are they?
I am really happy with how it turned out.
They are not perfect, but I like thier quirks.
What do you think?
I haven’t decided if I am going to frame them together or seperatly.
Either way, I like them.
The process was quite simple and I am excited to make more.
I have a whole list of chairs I want to add.
                                
                 Eames Rocker            Shield Back Chair          Chinese Chippendale 
                                                                             Arm Chair
Do you want some chair art too?
Just leave a comment listing what chair printables you would like (or all 3) and I will send them to you!
Oh, and leave your e-mail too.
And if you don’t, no worries, we can’t all be chair lovers.
Happy Monday!

6 Years!

Last night we celebrated our anniversary.
6 years, I can’t believe it.
We hit up two of SLC’s best places to eat.
Red Iguana– Great mexican food.
Gourmandise Bakery– Incredible french pastries
We took our desserts up to the U of U to enjoy the view of the valley.
It was lovely!
Unfortunately, we couldn’t stay out very late.
Zack had to be up at 4:00 am to make it back to the hospital.
The joys of being married to a medical student.
Luckily, I have a day date planned with this little girl…
Sounds good to me.

I am selling both Billy bookcases with glass doors for $75.00
Or you could just buy one for $40.00.
I am also selling the heavy duty desk (and 2 shelves) for $50.00.
It would be fantastic in a garage.
This cute yellow mirror is $10.00

And $30.00 for this old cabinet.
I had big plans for it…it just never happened!

DIY Abstract Art

I have been obsessing over finding an oversized piece of art for my house.

When I saw the DIY abstract art tutorial on 
It got me thinking…
Maybe I could do that?

My art skills have always lacked a little.
I try hard, but don’t always get the result I hope for.
Now I just need to decide on a style.
I have had this picture saved in my inspiration folder for a while.
I just can’t get this piece of art out of my head.
It is colorful, modern, and crisp. Love it.
I wonder if could I DIY that one?

I know I could do that one!
Have you ever attempted a large DIY art piece?
