The day House Beautiful arrives on my doorstep is always a great day. It means I get to sit down and relax while reading and looking through pages of gorgeousness! Last month's issue really caught my eye. One, because it was one of my all time favorite issues, and two, because the color palette of the issue as a whole is so fresh, cool and...oh, totally the color scheme for my room at school (:
IDEA.
Enter today's project.
Materials:
Canvas (your choice in size)
Magazine pages
Glue
Scissors
Black paint & brush
Steps:
1. Rip out your favorite images from the magazine. I cut some of the edges clean and left others ripped for a different effect.
3. Take time to arrange your photos. I knew I wanted a symmetrical look, but with a touch of funk. I grouped mine 3 across, all images staying on the canvas, but making sure to overlap and leave some edges jagged. I played around with the layout several times before committing. I love the placement of color and think everything balances out well!
4. Finish and hang! You can also mod podge over your images to ensure their safety (:
It's hanging in my room and lookin' good. There's just something about tangible, glossy magazine pictures that still get me every time. And with the latest HB edition being one of my favorites, I couldn't bare to let it sit in my magazine stash. I hope this sparks you to display images, inspiration and things you love as art in your home!
I promise I'm showing you my room real soon. BIG NEWS. I found a dresser two days ago and have given it new life. It will be on the blog next week. Pinky swear! Finding time to continue to set up and take well lit pictures of the room is the issue!
Hope you have a wonderful Thursday, loves!
Love,
