My 1st DIY Post

My blog isn't a DIY (Do It Yourself), food recipes, I'm ridiculously creative & want to show others all my creations kind of blog. But I have been a bit more creative lately because of Pinterest (so many great ideas & pics) plus we're in a new house & I have new space to decorate. Here's one project I've done lately. We wanted to make a "picture wall" in the playroom with various frame sizes to display the THOUSANDS of pics we have taken. I bought the alphabet print at TJ Maxx for $20 bucks & decided that would be the center. We had all these brown frames, but I needed black to match. Soooooo I primed & painted them black. Easy way to not spend the extra cash rebuying black ones. :)
Hard part was going through our gazilion pictures & narrow it down to 30 or so. Thankfully, Brett tackled the organizing of the "puzzle" of frames & hanging them up. Hanging things can be a beating!! Especially doing this with your spouse (no offense babe!) Measuring, keeping them straight, not too close together, not too far etc etc....so I got the heck outta his way & left Brett alone while hanging. When I woke up it was all done! Thanks love!!

 Priming first
