Guest Post: Inspired by Valerie Boy
Today we have our first guest post from a cute and famous blog,
theletter4! They are my idols because they have been on the Martha Stewart show... always a dream. I'll let them tell a little more about themselves below but here is a link and a few photos from their inspiration, Valerie Boy.
I'm so honored to introduce myself here on Hello Hydranga!!!
We are The Letter 4. A blog of 4 sisters with all different talents and tastes. We grew up so close to one another and our blog has been a way for us to feel close to each other again despite living far apart.
The oldest is
Julianna, who likes to
craft and cook. Next is
Jade who is our
expert chef. Then there is
Jamie who is the
designer/printable maker of the blog. And last there is the baby of the family,
Janae. She is our style guru and is always sharing
hair tutorials. You can link up your style related posts to our
What I Wore Link Party every Wednesday.
I wanted to share some wall art I created recently with you all. I was inspired by these
amazing light wall arts created by Valerie Boy and seen on Apartment Therapy.
I had a couple of blank canvas's that were calling my name and Valerie Boy's wall art inspiredthis cut canvas creation.
So I sketched out some clouds on the back of the canvas. When I stood the canvas up I was able to see through the canvas to my sketches easily follow my little pattern to create some clouds. For the clouds I just dipped the brush in several colors I wanted without mixing to much and swirled it into a half circle.
After I was done and my clouds had dried, I took an exacto knife and cut the top of my ridges on the clouds on the spots where I wanted the light to shine through more.
I was so happy with the way it turned out! And from the side it gave it a little added 3D bonus since the could ridges popped out a little bit.
Perfect addition to my daughters room. It sits on a dresser in front of a light :) You can see other creations I've made over at
our blog.
Thank you so much again for having me Lindsey!
