Made with Love {ugly painting turned word art}

This project has been all around Pinterest for a while, so when I saw this "interesting" artwork at a garage sale, I snatched it up to give it a try. 
It was $2.


I bought some vinyl letters at Lowe's.
They totaled $6.

I laid them out how I wanted them.


Stuck them on.



Spray painted the entire thing with paint I already had.
Waited as long as I could for it to dry...I hate this part.  I never wait as long as I should.


And carefully peeled off the vinyl.

Since my artwork wasn't actually a painting but a print, the vinyl tore some of the "painting" off, but I actually love how it looks.




If you look closely, you can see a nice layer of dust on the black credenza...
I take every opportunity I get to use the word credenza.

So go find the ugliest painting you can find and make something beautiful out of it.

  5. Okay, so I looked at the painting with the black letters, and was like-not impressed. Not improved. But then I kept scrolling and saw the white paint with the picture letters. Very impressed. Such a great idea.=)
