Diy Picture Decor

This may be one of my favorite projects to date.

I wanted something to hand in my newly remodeled bathroom.

I wanted something cheap and romantic – sounds like a good date night title huh!

I started out with a picture frame I got at Ross for $5

Then I choose some of the photo’s that I have taken to see what ones would work.

These were just pictures I have taken of some of the things in my house.

I only choose from the ones that fit with the romantic

theme – but you could use any pics of stills that you have

depending on what decoration style you have going.

You could do them in Black and White for a more

modern look.

I put them into my IPhoto program (the one that comes with a Mac)

and made them the same size, then used a combination

of color lightening and antique-ing effects on them.

Then, the best part, I sent them in to Walgreens from my computer

and they were ready for pick-up at the store an hour later.

All of them 4 x 6 and .19 cents each!!!!!!

Whoo Hoo!!

We just had a Walgreens put in a couple of blocks from me – I am loving it!

So I played with the different pictures, and decided on two of them to use.

Sorry about the lighting – this bathroom has no natural light.

This shows how it looks with my Diy light fixture

Once again, sorry about the blown out exposure!

You can go see the light project here-

Hope you liked it! I am off to do some Labor Day Weekend clean up!!

Have a great weekend!

    I really do like those – I would love to do something like that with photos of my grandkids – black & white or the brown tones. Maybe I’ll have time to be crafty in my next life!
