Photo Collage

I had some Christmas money that my parents gave me for Christmas.  I had been saving it trying to decide what I wanted to use it for.  I had been wanting to hang photo's for a long time but that wasn't exactly on in the "needs" category of spending so I haven't done it.  So I decided to use it too make the photo collage I have been creating in my brain!  I finally finished it.  I bought lot's of random frames from thrift store, I wanted all different textures and sizes.  It took countless layers of paint, particularly with the yellow.  And It was hard to choose which pictures to print.  I wanted to get high quality prints as well or else it would bother me every time I looked at them, so I did research on what company to print from.  They turned out great!  Exactly how I calibrated it on my computer for printing.  That cost a little more than cheaper prints so I used some awesome orange fabric to fill in the other frames, and later I can add photo's in there too!  I love how it turned out so much!

Now all I need to do is hang them!  That part sounds difficult lol.  However we may be moving soon so I will wait till I know if we are moving or not till I decide to hang them up.  It would be pointless to hang up only to have to take down and patch up holes in the wall a month later.
