Big Time Art

I think I mentioned last week that I have a new favorite blog, Little Green Notebook. Seriously I love every. single. post. I love her style. I love her DIY. I love that she actually does the DIY she posts about (unlike my 5 million half completed projects).

Today I found her post on this amazing (and budget friendly) tutorial on how to make oversized artwork (originally from this blog). And when I say oversized I mean oversized: up to 4′ x 3′. And budget friendly? $13!!!

So this has naturally been put on my short list of to-dos but what to print? Still in the works but leave it to Pinterest to give me some inspiration! I love vintage signs and have often dreamed of making an old sign into an interior wall of my house. I hate to burst my own bubble but it’s never going to happen. However, I could print a good old photo of a sign!

Wouldn’t one of these be awesome as oversized art?

I’m really loving the motel signs… I’m thinking maybe the guest bedroom?

A New Collection…

So I know that good collections grow over time. I have several that I’m growing v.e.r.y. slowly including a depression glassware collection (I have only a handful of pieces) and vintage mini cookbooks (I have about of dozen of those). However, my post early this week hit on a collection that I’ve been working over in my head for awhile and would love to make a reality.

I love old letters and signs and since our last name begins with a “K” (hence Curry K…) I would love a vintage letter collection and hang them in the back right corner wall near the peace lily plant. It’s just crying for a good “K” collection!

Here are a few I think could *start* my collection:

Terry Signs

Preserve Cottage

Raleigh Modern

loooooveeee this one!

Tennessee’s Parasise
