It is only fitting that the artwork in the book corner be book related. So I framed the book jackets (or dust covers) from two of her favorite books:
Fancy Nancy |
Pinkalicious |
The one frame I had already spray painted white for another project but I didn't like it there so I didn't use it.
The other frame I got from a free pile in front of someone's house. I actually picked up 4 frames there, this being the smallest and a great fit for the Pinkalicous cover. I have several ideas of what to do with the other frames so stay tuned for that. As for this small frame, it was gold so I spray painted it white to match the other frame.
We just used 12x12 scrapbook paper that Sweetie Pie picked out, to matte the book jackets.
I really like the way it turned out. Her reading corner is looking great. The only other thing I want to do is replace the three tiered Ikea trofast storage unit with a comfy bean bag.
