i HEART CANVAS

Yesterday, little man and I ran some errands.  One of our stops was to JoAnn's Fabric.  I picked up my beloved canvas for another canvas nursery project.  This was the look I was going for (courtesy of Pottery Barn Kids):

And this is what I got.  

I made my stencils from MS Word (I used Arial Black in bold), printed them and used an exacto knife to cut out the middle.  Then I taped the paper onto each canvas and painted only the inside of the numbers with blue acrylic paint.  If you look really closely they aren't perfect.  Some paint bled through the paper but I like the non-perfect-look.  I love these because now Bos can learn his numbers!  :)

Happy Thursday,
