Crayon Art

So my boyfriend and I decided to try a craft from pinterest. 

I don't know if you all have seen the melted crayon art on there or not but it is pretty neat. 

He wanted to do the browing heart symbol that I have on the back of my car.  We were going to do "boy" camo on the buck side and "girl" pink camo on the doe side. 

We used old crayons so the colors weren't as pretty but heres how it worked:

melting

you use a hair dryer

drip

finished product

the process is pretty straight forward and simple you pick your crayons lay them out in whatever color pattern you want.  glue them on the canvas and then use your blowdryer to melt them (that's the fun part)

We used a glue stick to glue contact paper on the canvas in our design and then the crayons dripped over it.  The colors looked really good and like camo on the boy side but my colors weren't so great.  Oh well product tried and done.  Not a total failure but not a masterpiece either.

Painting up a storm

So I have been painting some canvases that I purchased over the summer.  I saw some ideas on Pinterest and decided to make them mine for my [future] apartment. 

Here are my masterpieces:

Jeremiah 29:11

Psalm 139:14

Book pages and my monogram

The first two I painted the canvas an aged brown and then painted the bible verse on there.  They are two of my favorites. 

Then the last one is on a smaller canvas, I modpodged old book pages on the canvas and then painted my monogram.  You know how I love my monogram...


I absolutely love how they all came out and am so exicted to hang them up!!

Blessings,

Erin
