Easy Scrabble Artwork

I LOVE easy art work projects!! How many people scored these cute red frames from Target after Valentines Day like me for $2.49 a piece! I ended up getting 5... see my previous post about being a craft hoarder...

The mat is a bit girly / Valentines Day, so I simply flipped them over and used the white back side!

Then I cut pieces from my Target dish towels that I hoarded previously.
Taped them down... and put them back in the frames!
I then used pieces from my thrift-ed Scrabble game to create the words create, dream, live. I used glue dots to glue them to the outside glass.

Easy 5 minute art work!!! MY favorite kind!!

My last 2 red frames I just hung cute pictures of little man in! I added my scrabble artwork I made for Valentines Day with the word love! I also covered the lamp shade with that same Target dish towel!! I LOVE the patterns of these two target dish towels!! So inspiring for other projects around the house!!

    Cute little project! I still just love the print on the lamp shade. I saw the printed towel at Target the other day and it made me think of your cute pillows:)

    I LOVE how these turned out!! And I'm sorry, but I'm pretty sure all crafters quickly become craft-hoarders, LOL.

    Dropping by from the Linky hop to spread some linky love. Come on over to Happy Hour Projects and say hello - and feel free to link this up while you're there! My Freestyle Friday link party is open all weekend!

    Hope you're having a fantastic Friday!
