I made some art work for Nealy's room today. I basically painted some stripes on to a prepared canvas, then glued some felt branches, leaves, and birds on the canvas. I got the idea from someone's Etsy page. I'm really hoping that I've managed to make this piece my own, because I think the other piece was copyrighted.......oh well, I used felt, and theirs was all paint. Let me know what you think. I was so worried it was going to turn out miserable!!! I'm actually pretty pleased with the finished product. I still need to decide if I'm going to go back and add some eyes for the birds. Not sure, yet.
And for those of you wondering what I look like these days, here's a glimpse. I have a few sideways shots, but they always come with a double chin......I need to work on that.

I love the paintings. Very original and very you! I love them. Also, cute pic with you and little man!
Those are SO cute, I'm mightily impressed with your craftiness. For what its worth, I like the birds w/out the eyes. Congrats on being on the home stretch!
Very cute, Katie. And you look wonderful!
Add googly eyes!
I'm a little surprised at myself, how much I like this. That is a statement about me, not you. This is very eye-catching and creative and personal and all those things without being baby-typical and theme-y. What is with nursery themes? Why do we think it matters? Pardon me while I blog in your comment space.
Very lovely. Thanks for being crafty.
Love the paintings, the birds are beautiful. I have to say my vote would be no eyes, but hey that is me ~ I am not a googley eye kind of gal;) You look fantastic by the way and I can't get over how much Jacks looks like you~ PRECIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!
