Modern Vintage Art Redo

  I just finished this project yesterday, and I was too excited about it to wait until next week to post it! I loved Abby's Modern Vintage Art , but I wanted to add some of the teal color into it. At first I was just going to change the bow in the little girls hair to a teal one, but slowly I ended up change everything. (Isn't that how most projects turn out). Well you know me, enough chit chat and on to the pictures ;)


  I LOVE the soft airy feel going on in her room now!

Here are some closeups of each piece!!!

   I added the same trim I used on the Ric Rac Cuff Sheets over the black velvet. I think it looks like a completely different frame with the teal finish on it!

  For the Little Girl, I changed out the background to one that matches her Photo Art Blocks. The color is a little darker in this picture than in real life.

  For the Little Boy's picture I changed out paper to again match the Photo Art Blocks. Then added a pink bow tie!

   I LOVE the way these turned out!!! From the teal distressed frame to the real metal keys and locks ! Much better than the before paper version!

  This cute hair bow holder I made yesterday to go in the middle, it fills the space so much better than the smaller frame. I hot glued the ric rac on the inner grove of the frame, then added the lace across the back.

  Here is a close up of the fabric flowers I added to the bottom corner! :) They make me happy, and Abby too. She keeping going in her room and saying ooooh pretty flowers. :D

    One last picture of that side of the room! It is finally coming together.

  Oh I forgot I haven't done a post about her closet makeover ;) Well that is coming soon my friend.
I have a few more projects I want to tackle still.
- new curtains
- old mantle shelf with knobs
- lace bunting

  I am so excited to see how it all comes together! :) Tell me what do you think? Do you LOVE the pink and teal together as much as I do?

Modern Vintage

     I think Abby's nursery is a perfect blend of modern and vintage. Tomorrow I am getting a vintage dresser for her room from a friend! I was going to paint it white, but I think I might just paint it Aqua!!! :) I really want to start adding touches of light aqua in with the pink and black.

   I would LOVE to find a cute little round table and chair set for her room too. Okay, well, enough of that for now. I have a project to share with you now :). Here is Abby's Silhouette wall!

   I found all these frames at good will for $1- $2 each. Then, just using my cricut and scrapbook paper, I made these cuties. The little girl and boy I found on google and printed them out, cut, and traced them onto the back of black scrapbook paper. Then I just cut them out and glued them onto the patterned scrapbook paper! Easy Peasy.

  I think they really do look like Abby and Cole! What do you think?

I really LOVE the little white frames, but I want to find a real lock and key to go in them.

  I saw the Child of God art on Etsy for $20, but I knew I could copy it for cheaper. I did 5 pink scrapbook papers at 49 cents each and the black velvet backside of the frame, which plays off the black velvet matting on the high heel picture. I think I will tie a black velvet ribbon in a bow around the key, when I find one. ;) For now I am calling this wall, DONE!
