I was so in love with our newborn pictures that it took me forever to decide which ones I wanted printed on canvases. Which I guess is a good problem to have right?
I finally picked which ones but it took me so long to decide which sizes to get. Tell me I am not alone in letting things sit in a cart online for days and then change your mind and have the news ones sit for days and on and on for too long?
Chris eventually just made me order them because I was asking him way too many times what he thought. I originally thought about making my own as I've seen many good looking diy canvases, but figured after buying the canvases and the prints I would still be spending a decent amount of money and I'd rather spend a little more and have them look really good since they'd be hanging in our living room. Plus I knew I'd be ridiculously upset if I managed to mess something up.
I ordered these from easy canvas prints, were I also got this one and this one from. They always have really good coupons and deals. Each of these 16 x 16 prints were only $20 (but then $20 each for shipping), which was a lot cheaper than other places. And they look awesome!
I wanted to hang the canvases with something like these wooden knobs from pottery barn but did not want to pay $24 each.
So I went to home depot and found these wooden stair post tops. They were only $5 each and we just used deck finish to paint them. (And forgot to take a picture first but I'm sure you can imagine them looking lighter wood color can't you?)
I just used mounting tap to hang up the knobs and then hung up the canvases with a nail. So they aren't really hung by the rope. Tricky, huh?
I absolutely love how it turned out. And Addilyn actually loves it too. We've tried at least five times and each time I hold her up to them she smiles, laughs and talks to them.
