Shabby Frame & Typography Project

{if you have not already, click here to enter the

giveaway for Miss Mustard Seed’s new book!!)

Creating special pieces of art and home

decor for our homes does not need to be expensive

or complicated either. Sometimes the most

beautiful flower arrangement is a handful of quickly

cut flowers from our yard in a jar or pitcher.

I love the combination of different materials, fibers

and elements that can come together to make

something we really enjoy.

And when it speaks the words of our heart, even better.

How perfect for this week,

which Valentine’s Day falls in.

I surprised my hubby with this on his

nightstand a few days ago. Since it had burlap

and zero glitter it had his stamp of approval

for our space. And I loved the distressed

frame right when I found it.

I have always loved the large pallet art with

this saying, but I am still piecing together

what our space will look like.

So, a smaller version was just right.

And it is just so simple and sweet.

I cannot resist different types of paper

letters and typography styles so I seem to

be building up a bit of a collection.

I alternated two fonts, with a piece of

damask scrap book paper behind the letters.

Once I was done, I made a simple paper bunting

that looks like it has real stitching on it.

And a shabby burlap rose with a tiny pearl

from a bag of broken vintage jewelry I bought

last year glued in the center.

Manly enough to make the hubs happy, and

sweet enough to make me smile when

I walk by it. Just right for us.

Happy Valentine’s Day (and week!) friends…

xo, Tanya
