New Frames for the Living Room

 A while back I saw these pictures on a blog and I loved the look of it.

 

 

I decided that was something that I could do myself, so I started hunting for all the supplies I needed.

 

I found these frames on Amazon and bought them with a gift card I got last Christmas and some birthday money.

 

 

For the mats, I purchased some poster board from a craft store along with an X-acto knife and a cutting mat. I measured out how big they needed to be and how big I wanted the hole to be and cut away. They aren't perfect, so someday I'll redo them to make them better, but they are good for now.

 

I created the prints using Page Maker, printed them out, and then assembled them.

 

 

 

The top one says:

"There is an endless song, echoes in my soul. I hear the music ring.

And though the storms may come, I am holding on. To the rock I cling

I know I am loved by the King and it makes my heart want to sing."

They are some words from the song "How Can I Keep From Singing"

 

The bottom one says "This is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24 



Ignore the sad looking plant. It was just thirsty. Don't worry - It is doing awesome now!

I am quite happy with the way they turned out and am looking forward to changing out what's in the frames at different times. I am working on changing them out for Christmas and am currently making something inspired by these stars in the picture below. I hope they turn out how I want them to!
