mostly a quiet day…

watched tv and then worked on the picture frames to go on the staircase wall…

been planning and thinking about these frames for a number of months…

purchased the frames from IKEA and they have been sitting on a shelf waiting…

while the kids were here at Christmas, we decided to use water lily pictures which I have taken over the years… took quite a while to come to that decision because I have taken many flower pictures and couldn’t decide which ones to choose…

in the end the water lilies called to me as they are in water – one of my favourite things, and have beautiful flowers…

then I had to choose fifteen… well I think I ended up with about twenty five, lol…

was going to have them printed at Staples but decided a few days ago to print a few at home and see how they looked…

this morning I finally dug out the pliers so that I could open the back of the frames and put a couple in…

slow process, as I had to move each picture around to see the best view… then I had to print them a few at a time…

eventually I chose five pink, five white and five purple…

finished them just before the kids arrived…

next step will be to hang them…

hope that doesn’t take as long as the previous part of the process…

maybe one day I will put this one up on the wall…
