The Artistic Side-on a budget!

 This is a necklace/scarf I made out of a t-shirt. You take your shirt, lay it flat down (front facing you). Starting at the bottom of the shirt you cut strips (they will look like circles when you hold them up). I cut about 10-15, but you can do as many as you want to get the look you want. Then once you have cut out all your strips, take your flat hand & roll the material to make it curl up (see picture above). Then tie off the back & strut your cute new look:)

I bought this canvas & it had just the background squares painted on it. I always felt like there was something missing, so I decided to add to it after I was inspired by an amazing speaker at a women's retreat. Since red is one of the colors in my dining/living room, I thought painting this huge heart would be perfect. It symbolizes God's love for the world. Then I painted the world & the scripture verse John 3:16.
Taking a painting that you already own & just adding to it with some of the colors in your house is a great way to decorate your space on a budget:)
