The Dollar Store Diva: Dollar Store Just-for-Fun Wall Art

We have a bathroom upstairs in our little Cape Cod that’s hardly big enough to store two toothbrushes. Besides that, it’s b.o.r.i.n.g. “Someday” we’ll spend some time and energy on it, but for now I just wanted to make it a bit more fun since it’s the bathroom my grandchildren often use when they come to visit.

I found these frames at Dollar Deals. I have no idea what the numbers and letters on the frames stand for, but it’s kind of fun speculating.  On the same trip, I bought two dishtowels with stripes of the same blue as the frame.

This is what resulted; talk about easy…

Wall Art

I cut one towel in half and stretched a piece behind each of the 4×6 frames. That’s it; it was that simple. It is standing on our counter along with an ironstone bowl of matching washcloths. OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

And then there is this: I separated the two frames and, once again, cut a towel and used the two halves as a mat for the letters. I chose a font easy to cut (you might want to check out the funky font I used here) and printed two each of the H and I, cut them out, and matted the cranberry letters with yellow letters.

They hang on the wall at an angle. Somehow it just seems appropriate.

So there you have it: some easy just-for-fun Dollar Store wall art. I get a kick out of them every time I look at them.

So what do you think? Any idea what the 23.42 and LR 1218 painted on the frame stands for?
