My little boy; who was three at the time, had collected some fall leaves and we pressed them. I had them in a frame in my living room. He is really crazy about trees so we have done more than a few projects involving trees. The teenagers (his brothers) have unintentionally knocked the frame off the wall several times. So, the frame finally broke. It can be repaired but, I decided to try something new on that wall. I had a plan to again use Vintage Printable and print out some botanical prints for a grouping on my wall.
Taking a tip from Mary Carol Garrity; famous for her store Nell Hills in Atchison, KS, I used pieces of paper taped on the wall to space my pictures out.
I have always wanted framed botanical prints in a grouping but, I have never found a way to spend money on art. This was a affordable solution. I had the frames from a sale at Hobby Lobby, they were 40% off (around $4 each).
Now if the teenagers will try not to knock them off the wall they should be alright. I will give the pressed leaves a new home in my littlest one's bedroom.
