I think we have a date tomorrow night. Woot!
This is what I made for Mr. Smarty this week. I've always sung You are my Sunshine to our babies. I still sing it probably everyday. So I thought I should paint the words on canvas so I don't forget them.
Did you make something for your sunshine? Any date ideas?
Hi! Thanks for your visit on my blog. Yes, unfortunately, it did take 4 coats--BUT it was with a generic paint that didn't have a primer mixed in with it. I bet it might only take you two coats or less if you were painting on a wall without a dark color.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for stopping by! Love your sunshine artwork!
Awwww. My husband and I sing it to each other. Good memories of that song. I will be thrilled beyond measure to sing it to my little ones in the future.
ReplyDeleteThat is so nice Kristen, I love that canvas :D so sweet!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet gift!!!!!
ReplyDeleteVery sweet idea! Did you just handpaint the letters?
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting and commenting on my blog today! :D
That is the best idea! So simple but means so much.
ReplyDeleteWith a new baby no time to make anything but I was singing this earlier today to Tuvia my 7 week old son. I think I sing it every day too - one of those tunes you never forget!
ReplyDeleteVery thoughtful, sweet gift for your husband. I need to get my creative thoughts flowing...any minute now.
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by my new blog!

what a really lovely idea. I brought some small canvas's and painted them a back ground colour and then put each child's handprint on one - looks really nice and is a nice memory also. thanks for sharing. Helen
