When we moved into our new house, one of the things that was so relaxing about the whole experience was that I loved the colors on all of the walls so I wouldn’t have to paint. I only painted one wall in the kids room before we moved in and that was just because the color that was there wasn’t really a neutral boy/girl color. Other than that, I love it all. The bathroom on the main floor, which is also the kids bathroom, is a beautiful pale yellow. I love the color but I was struggling with how to decorate it because I just didn’t want to paint over it because I despise painting bathrooms. It’s too much work. Because that bathroom is the bathroom people will use when they come over to visit, and not just the kids bathroom, I didn’t want to make it too much of a kid space. I had a hard time figuring out how to decorate it. We decided on some pale blue rugs and a white shower curtain and it all looked lovely, except that the walls just seemed a little too bare. So I looked at some art at some places but didn’t want to spend that much money. So I went to my fall back option. Michaels.com. I LOVE being crafty, but I love it more when I have a purpose. I found some cute ideas on making my own wall art with fabric so I thought I’d give it a try. I decided to go with a blue fabric to bring out the blue from the rugs and add some white and a little bit of yellow. I found a fabric I liked and then gathered some ribbon, flowers and buttons and figured I’d make it work.

I started with a blank thing of Styrofoam board. I bought two different blue fabrics and then sewed them together. I then sewed some white ribbon over the seam and then added some blue ribbon with buttons and some yellow flowers and I think they turned out super cute!


I’m still wondering if I want to add something else, but I can’t think of anything so I probably won’t. But if anyone has any super cute ideas, I’m all ears!
The walls aren’t so bare anymore and I had a fun time making them!
