craft #1: wallflowers & did you see the Tonys

first up is something i saw on the blog young house love a while back. check out this room in their first home

cool

i picked up a of posterboard and some scotch mounting putty at target

i wanted to really get a look at those flowers before i started trying to sketch them out

i ke the bottoms of the boxes because i figured i'd need some cardboard down the line

i made sizes since i noticed both the umbra flowers and the ones from uo also came in different sizes

i was able to fit 10 flowers and 5 flowers on one of posterboard

once they're cut out

take a flower

then a table full of them

don't they already look like the real ones

stuck a little dot of it on the back of each flower

untili it stays curled

repeat times

until you have this

now it's time to decide where you want to put them

the nursery

right there

that's where i wanted them

just started placing them on the wall

i just stuck them on the wall sorta haphazard-like
