I took a little break from the playhouse to make some art for my boy's room. I found this vintage children's book at our local
Deseret Industries for 50 cents. I love the illustrations. They are so sweet and remind me of being a kid. Then I went back and bought six frames that were very similar.
My helper and I painted them with some blue paint I already had. The plan was to cut the illustrations out of the book but I loved them so much I couldn't bear it. I decided to scan and print them instead. I love how they turned out. I am excited to do some more projects to make their room more fun!
