Farmhouse signs

I loveeee farmhouse inspired signs

or the growing up around a small town where the signs are authentic....i'm not sure but i am sure that i love them :)  

well after digging around pinterest as usual....I just couldn't take it anymore!!! I needed something in my house and I couldn't get myself to drop $45+ on something through amazons website...but i also didn't want to spend $10+ and get a print....I WANT HANDMADE!!!!  so how does one get handmade without buying handmade.....duhhhhh

Artsy fartsy

So idk why but I've really been into doing some art here lately.


The first one I did was a 3d drum set on like an abstract background. An the second one is an abstract piece as well. It has lyrics to some of mine and his favorite bands and also music sheets that I glued and paired over where you can barely see the notes poking out.

If you guys would like to see a mini tutorial on how I did either or both of these please lemme know :)
