Finally did something with my living room wall!

This wall is HUGE...and i could never figure out what to do with it. The ceiling in the living room is hugely vaulted. I knew "it" needed to be nice and big, but who can afford large scale art? Not me!!

So, i got an idea from a magazine, started that process, then changed my mind, ending with what i just hung up today.

Each canvas is 18x24, and i currently have 3 in the peice. I plan to eventually have it grow to be 3 canvases high and wide, so 9 total, all identical in style as the first 3.

TOTAL COST:

2 pack board canvases from Michaels
9.99-40% coupon =$5.99 for the TWO pack
for all 9 boards =$29.95 with one board to spare (and Terra has already attacked it with paint!)

I purchased the flower stamp at the Eclectica Yard Sale for $2 i think (somewhere around there) and i already have way too much craft paint so i cant even count that in the cost!

I really like how it turned out and can't wait to go get a few more sets at Michaels over the next few days/weeks! Will post the final project once it is finished!
