have you seen this at target? i loved it and thought it would be so perfect for our den- where we do homeschool. but it's like 20 bucks- kind of a lot of money. as much as i wanted it {i even put it in my buggy/shopping cart while i tried to justify the purchase} i knew i would have buyer's remorse before i left the parking lot. so i thought, "hey, i could make this!"
so i did. a less perfect version- full of love.
i bought this stencil from hobby lobby for $3.99:
and i bought a white 18"x18" canvas for $8.99, i think.
i already had acrylic paint.
i cut the stencils so i could line up the
letters to fit the i ♥ u.
letters to fit the i ♥ u.
i happened to have the perfect size heart!
there it is. the finished product.
total cost: $14.05, including sales tax. not bad.

ReplyDeleteI *heart* this - like larger than life *heart* it! Jill, you're a crafty genius!
ReplyDeleteI think etsy needs you . . . but you're probably gonna be busy this fall. Find a few linky parties to share your genius. Thankfully you're not stingy because not sharing this with all of blogdom would have been.
I want one!
