This
week for Trash to Treasure Thursday I thought we would make some use
of those calendars we are done with from last year. It is also a good
time to plan for next year and pick up this year's calendar with
decorating your dollhouse in mind.
If
you don't have a calendar from last year don't worry you can still
pick up a new one at the dollar store for a dollar and use it. The
regular stores will be discounting their calendars to half price in a
few months too so keep your eyes open you'll find one to use.
I
actually picked last years calendar with the idea that I wanted to
use the art work for my minis. Like I said in the video I remembered
a photo of an art gallery that I saw once a long time ago. The art in
this gallery were large close ups of flowers and they were just on
the stretched canvass. They may have been either paintings or photos
it doesn't matter it is the look I am after not a direct copy. By
just using something firm as a base to glue your art work onto you
have the same look.
For
other calendars you might want to use a frame you can either buy a
frame at a mini store, online or make on yourself. We made some
really cool “antique” frames for a Trash to Treasure a few months
ago that would work.
Since
calendars come in so many styles to fit into our real size homes and
offices I am sure you will find the perfect calendar to decorate your
dollhouse with.
