There’s funky-whimsical picture frame giveaway this week (ends 11/28).
Come take a look.
We had a blast taking The Little Lady on her first trip to the beach this summer. We were such proud parents as we watched her discover the water and sand for the first time. I think I took over 100 pictures. Then I came home and blogged about it. A friend told me I should make it into a book… so here it is~
I used a blank board book I bought from Bare Books. They’re really cheap, however there’s a flat rate for shipping of $10 so be ready to make it worth your while and stock up. {Perfect for Christmas gifts!} I actually first heard about Bare Books from my friend, Megan.
I used the 5” book for this project.
I printed out the pictures and cut them to size and rounded the corners. Then I used decoupage to glue the pictures onto each page of the book. I painted decoupage over the top to seal it.
I definitely need to improve my “decoupaging” skills. I think I put too much on a few of the pages and they warped making it impossible to close the book. So there’s a little tip for those of you that want to try this one out.
Other than that I love how it turned out and I can’t wait to see the look on The Little Lady’s face when she sees that there’s a book about her.
