My sweet little sister is expecting her first baby, and has a baby shower at the beginning of February. Like me, she loves animals, and also, one of her husband’s favorite early childhood movies was The Wizard of Oz. I decided to surprise them with a Lions Tigers and Bears themed tapestry as party of the baby shower decor, that will also be part of their gift.
This was my project this week. I found a thick cotton curtain, and altered the size to be about 47″ x 64″. Then I used acrylic paint to do the design. It’s amazing how much paint is sucked up when there can’t be a primer first! Here’s a couple photos of the progress:
Today, I ironed the curtain to help set the paint, and found a wood dowel to hang it.
I put some glow in the dark paint on the three lanterns, and very excited to give it to them!
