You wouldn't know it by my apartment, but I desperately want to live in a well-decorated space. Mostly I blame it on money, since I can't very well chalk it up to not having time (let's remember I work something in neighborhood of 15 hours a week), but that's pretty lame. I'm trying to remind myself that, when motivated, I can be a thrifty, creative, (dare I say inspired? ...no, i don't) person.
The latest evidence:
14" x 18" canvas (bought at cost off of craig's list), my photos (the middle one is a photo of some Amy Butler fabric, colors/brightness changed) applied using iron on transfer paper left over from making Courtney's bachelorette party tee. It's definitely not Selby-worthy, but I like it.
Now, the next project.
I'm not sure yet. I have many more canvasses and means to hang them. I recently picked up two cans of (free!) mismatched paint from the neighborhood Ace store. I'm thinking about some found-objects-as-stencils or "stamps," but I have yet to find any inspirational objects.
Ideas?

Anything but chain link fence - it's too 1996. Before you know it you'll be burning screenplays and singing about paying rent.
Nice, job! Since I seem to be lacking any time for creativity around my house these days...perhaps I'll hire you to make a piece of art for our new living room..game?
