Being Artistic

When we bought the new bunk beds for Porgie and Izzy's room, I decided to change the room's theme. Both of my kids are currently obsessed with dinosaurs, so naturally I decided to head in that direction. I bought these adorable quilts from Bed, Bath, and Beyond...
I know the bedding seems a little boyish, but Porgie loved the design. Then I started looking at art for the walls. Although they had matching dinosaur pictures, the prints were over $20 a piece (and the were really small). Since I spent more on the bedding than I care to admit, I didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars on some goofy pictures of dinosaurs. So, being the determined pregnant woman that I am, I decided to make my own, frugal artwork...




I spent less than $20 on the entire project! Although I am usually super critical of my artwork, I actually really like these paintings. They are simple, cute, and they match the bedding. I was so impressed with my handiwork, that I decided to paint some new canvases for the baby's fishy themed room too...



Both bedrooms look great. I am awesome!
