crafty canvas

Hannah (my sister) was in town last weekend for a visit and since she's a pretty crafty gal, I thought I'd put her to work - haha. A few weeks ago I was in Cleveland for work visiting Flourish, Inc. and they had a solid orange canvas hanging in their conference room - it was to die for and I couldn't get it out of my head. However, a few weeks ago I decided on kelly green accents for our stark white guest room, so off Hannah and I went to Hobby Lobby (my new favorite hang-out, yes, I'm serious).

And we found the best deal of the weekend - 1/2 off on a 36 x 48 canvas because the plastic was ripped - don't mind if I do...

We laid out our supplies (acrylic paint and sponge brushes) on some moving boxes in the yard...

and we got ourselves to painting...

and of course, Jack was a great supervisor...

 

ta-da!!!

...and I got it hung,

and pretty centered all on my own - ( insert applause here) - now I'm on the hunt for accent pillows with a great pattern and a rug. Any suggestions?

...and then whoops!
