We are in double digits of the 31 Days - woo hoo!!!
Today I attempted my first subway art or something along those lines. I have tons of canvases from when my daughters used to paint on them for fun. So a few months ago I painted one brown to match the furniture in the guest bedroom.
Yep - that is as far as I got. I could not decide what words to put on it. So there is sat. I had even bought the carbon paper as I do not have a vinyl cutter.
Today it came to me. My favorite Bible verse done subway style. I printed the verse in a variety of fonts and sizes. Cut them out and played around until I got the layout I like
Then I traced every.single.letter. with the carbon paper under it. Took for-ev-er. And have you figured out the problem yet? Yeppers - carbon does not show up on chocolate brown paint - not well at all.
And note - I probably should not have tried this particular project on my first evening with new glasses.
So I started painting the letters. it is not quite done and I have alot of touching up with the brown paint to do now
But here is how it goes thus far
Still needs alot of work - but hopefully I can wrap it up tomorrow.
Until tomorrow
Happy DIY'ing
Susan
