Wall Art

I have realized that some of the best art to put on a wall is a child’s. So I decided to put my little one to work and make some art for our house!

We moved into out house in June and we still have a lot of white walls, that were also empty. Over the weekend I had Hailey paint three 12x12 canvases.

She loves to paint! I wish I could say this is like mother, like daughter but it’s actually like grandmother, like granddaughter. (My mom is an artist)

I didn’t think the colors through very well on one of them. It turned out a little… well brown. But it’s still cute and I still put it up

Now we have some lovely one of a kind art on our wall!

Next I am going to do some art of my own for another empty wall in our house. It will involve more canvases but I won’t be using paint. I’ll be using scrapbook paper!

    I really love them! In all honesty I've have something like that on my walls too, the red / purple is my favourite :-)
