New Bedroom Decor

There are a lot of changes going on at Our Fine House. Outside, we're creating a new patio in our garden, replacing the changing room by our pool and trying to keep our plants alive in this heat. Inside, we're in the middle of a major bathroom remodel, and we're redecorating our master bedroom.

I finally got around to hanging artwork in our bedroom. Since I had four shadowbox frames that I wanted to hang, I knew I needed to get my measurements just right. First, I traced a template of each shadowbox onto newspaper. On each template, I marked where the hanging brackets were placed.

Then, I taped them to the wall to decide how I wanted them spaced.

Once I was happy with their placement, I took measurements to make sure that they were all spaced evenly. I also made sure that they were level.

Then, I took my trusty hammer and nailed right through the newspaper template where I had previously marked the bracket points.

I then tore the newspaper off the wall.

Finally, my art was ready for it's new home. To create my artwork, I just placed black scrapbooking paper in each shadowbox frame. Then, I hot glued the sea stars and sand dollars to the paper.

We're working hard to complete our bedroom remodel and looking forward to

sharing all of the photos with you.
