Today’s DIY Projects- Framed Toddler Art & Painted Table

July 31, 2012

I have two Ikea frames for the girls’ shared Big Girl Room..
and I wanted to fill them with their own artwork.
So today after nap.. two very excited squealing and giggling toddlers..
got to paint with water colors on large poster boards from the dollar store.
(the back side..since the front is shiny)
I had sienna sign her drawing with her little hand print. so sweet.
SUPPLIES:
–We used water colors we already had
–Poster boards were 50 cents
This is my kind of art to fill a frame!
Inexpensive but most importantly..special. :)

I also decided this afternoon while playing outside to give
our old “loved” Ikea table a makeover with my leftover
yellow spray paint from the Animal Lid Jar Project.
I plan on using this at one of the booths at their
Vintage Circus Birthday party coming up..
and then relocating the table and chairs to the
Sophie & Sienna Cafe in the play room. ;)
Officially out of yellow spray paint..that should slow me down for a few days. ;)
I seriously want to spray paint everything yellow right now. haha.

    Have been wanting to put together a little gallery of pictures in the kiddos room and think personalized art is such a fab idea!!:)

    I’m on the hunt for a side table to add to my nursery. I really want to spray paint it yellow. It is my favorite color right now :)
