I'm Going Rooster Over My Wall Art

The last couple of weeks, I been wanting to change things up in my home. I got into a rut and I have not changed much around here in almost two years, not good!

This tutorial is a side track to my schedules tutorials. Yes, I have a calendar for all my DIY projects and post. I just started this in April and what a differences. It helps me stay on track, because I am a bit OCD. I don't have an update on my Chair frenzy, but I found inspiration on this next project and wanted to share with you all. Back in October, 2011 I did a wall art and today I am going to show you my latest wall art creation.
I had this rooster dish towel and I wanted to use it as my wall art. 
Added a single layer of batting. 
I used thumb tacks to hold the dish towel in place. Voile! 
What do you think? I love the print and they way it looks on the wall.
I am changing things around in my kitchen and I have this vision of how I want it to look. I still have to paint, change out the mirror and fix my dining table. Lots to do, but it will get done. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great weekend. I LOVE your SWEET comments, so drop me a line.

Hugs,
Vanessa

  2. Hi Vanessa~!
    I love what you did! Super creative and it turned out great!
    So ironic you did roosters, because I'm totally just getting into roosters too! I did a post (with a few pictures) just a few minutes ago, about some new rooster things I bought within the last week!

    I hope you have a great weekend sweet Vanessa! And thanks for the blog comments! :)

  6. This is such a cute idea, Vanessa! I have a set of 2 dishtowels with a single image of almost the exact same rooster & hen. I had been thinking they were just way too cute to use as dishtowels & wouldn't want to risk them actually getting used if I tried displaying them. I just may have to copy your idea. Thanks so much for sharing!
