For many people the bathroom can be a place to get away.
I remember in high school I used to sit on the bathroom sink and cry when I had a bad day.
It was a place of solitude.
Even still, I love my master bath complete with jet action tub
for spa like relaxation.
However, my guest bath needed a redo last summer,
because I wanted it to be a place where my boys felt like they belonged.
It is their bathroom after all.
{There will be more about this transformation next month
during a week long series on Boy Spaces}
Well, after all was said and done there wasn't
anything on the walls.
In fact, they have been bare for almost a year.
Then I saw these in the Land of Nod Catalogue.
They were too large for my bathroom,
too much for my budget,
and the wrong colors.
So I decided that I would take a stab at creating my own.
Mind you, I do not have Photoshop or Illustrator.
So this was all done on WORD.
I started this back in early February.
It took only a few hours to create the printables,
but I had trouble finding frames that had a shape that I liked
at a price that I liked.
I finally found some a few weeks back at Ross,
one was even on clearance because the stand was broken.
This was no matter to me because I knew I'd be removing the stands and hanging them.
I sprayed the frames in colors that would coordinate
with the rest of the room,
specifically with the shower curtain.
Here are the final results.
Poor lighting in a bathroom with no windows.
What do you think?
I adore them.
We assigned the tasks to mom and dad based on who most often requests each one to be done.
I was so excited to see that she too had knocked these off.
I felt like I must have truly had a great idea if she had it too.
Check it out to see how she did hers.
