Family Rules Subway Art

I've been wanting to do this for a while and I finally got around to finishing it today

I have been so bothered by this light switch... we never use it and it's in the middle of the wall.  I had two options:  ask my husband to move it and then patch the hole in the wall or cover it up with something.  Guess which one I chose!

Yes, that's an old diaper on the counter.  Yes, I know my house is gross :)  I'm tired of pretending that my blogging persona is all neat and organized all the time.

Now all the mess is just pushed out of the way :)  Oh, and there's a canvas on the wall.  Much better.

While we are at it with the true confessions, I'm not really feeling all the warm and fuzzies this artwork is supposed to evoke.  The kids are driving each other nuts today.  It's a little more like "In this house we bug, irritate and are annoyed by one another".  Maybe I can change the word "hug" to "bug".

And here's a little tip I learned... use a thumb tack in each corner to keep the canvas off the counter when you're making it.  This made everything so much easier!

I really love this in the 16" x 20" size.  In July when I blogged about the "God made you" subway art tutorial, I was making 11"x14" canvases.  Now I have 11x14, 16x20 and 18x24 canvases available in my etsy shop.  Let me know what you think of the bigger ones!

Thanks for stopping by!
Blessings,
Jamie
