feeling crafty!

I am usually not one to post alot about stuff I make for the kids but this was a cute easy idea that I wanted to share. We are still working on getting Ezra's room finished and it really needs to have some accents and things on the wall.


I had brandon make me some of  what was suppose to be 8x8 boards at work. Once I started working with them they were actually smaller so I just cut the paper smaller. No big deal. He painted then white at work for me so it would save me some time.

I then found Ezras bedding on Ikea.com and added it to psp so I could get the colors perfect. I made a new template sized 8x8 and designed some pages to match his room.



I printed out the letters in his name and cut them out. I ended up changing the font because I decided I didn't like this.

I used a spray adhesive from walmart in the craft section to glue the paper to the boards.
I used the same thing to glue the letters!

I used modge podge to do a gloss sealer on the letter z to see how it would do. It made the paper bubble and I  just took it off the board and I'm going to make a new one without.
                                  I was gonna hang these on the wall but a shelf might be better!! Here are a few pics of his room. It is a mess because I took all the clothes out because he is getting a (new to him) dresser. Sorry some of the pictures are sideways I dont know why blogger does that to them. Just turn your head sideways! lol
