Crafty Wednesday!

The first ones I made. These are in my living room.

This June will be 2 years in our new house. LOL - I still call in the new house, even though, A - It's not a brand new one, and B - after 2 years, how new is this house anymore?

Anyway, our old house (yeah, you're gonna get old a new in this blog) didn't have vaulted ceilings. Just regular 8 ft. ceilings. Nothing fancy and glamorous, and I must admit, it was nice. The house stayed warm all the time and it wasn't complicated to decorate. But we out grew it and needed to move closer to hubby's work. So we are at the new house now. 

This house...it certainly had vaulted ceilings. Wait, let me take that back, I don't know if it's considered vaulted. The foyer and the living room are 24 feet high! I believe these are called 2 story rooms. Yes, when looking at houses, it's all Oooo and Aaah! Then you move in and you think, how the hell do I decorate all these tall walls!

Well, I'm going to tell you. Just in case you're cheap like me or want to attempt to be crafty, when really, you're not.

These are up in my stair/foyer area. I went a little more bold in my colors. I'm usually a neutral kinda gal.

I believe the technical term is tape art. It's so super, duper easy. Just buy canvases in the size you want. I got 7 on sale at Micheals for like...$12 I think? I'm not positive. 

Choose your paint colors. Then get your tape (Frog tape works best) and tape off your design. Do about 2-3 layers of paint. Let it dry. Pull the tape off. You are done! See, easy! And then you've filled your walls with art. And not just any art. Your art! And boy, when people come over, they really like it. You get a sense of pride. :)

Check out my Things For Around The House board on pinterest. You'll see other things that are easy. Because let me tell you, easy is my way. 

See ya next week!
