Let's start with some love, shall we?
When I first started this blogging thing there were a couple of blogs that I got a crush on. You know what I'm talking about, those blogs where every post inspires you and you get giddy when something new comes up on your dashboard. Admit it, Treasure & Tranquility is one of those blogs......*insert extreme sarcasm!*
Well, I've had a huge blog crush on Amanda from A Lovely Place to Land forever now.
Amanda has a wonderful home full of DIY decor. She is a Thrift Shop lover who has done beautiful projects such as:

She recently took a little break from blogging to welcome her first child into her family. And although I missed her posts, how can I blame her for wanting to spend time with this cutie!? But now she is back and I can crush some more. :)
Before taking her maternity leave Amanda posted this fabulous Family Gallery Wall.

I fell in love and knew that someday I would have to do the same... and here it is!
It's a small gallery right now, but I expect it to grow. I had bunches of Sweetpea's artwork in a box and I've been thinking of a way to showcase it. Problem solved. All the frames are thrifted and I just happen to have a can of spray paint meant for plastic already. Easy peasy!

Best of all it really give our house that "home" feel, which I can honestly say I've never felt until now.
Love, love, love it! I can't wait to add more masterpieces.

cute! I've been wanting to do this in the girls rooms but my problem is actually letting the girls go crazy with art supplies lol - it looks really good barbie :D
ReplyDeleteI love the framed children's art---I taught art in public school for years. Art made by young people is simply the best. Your display is darling. I love it.

Barbie, thank you so much for your kind words! They made my day and believe me, I REALLY needed for my day to be made. Your gallery wall looks incredible. I can't wait until my little bit provides me with some fantastic wall art :)
