Before we get started,\u00a0I need to say THANK YOU\u00a0for all the sweet comments you guys left on my blog birthday post<\/a>!! \u00a0It’s been amazing reading through them and knowing how much you guys are enjoying being here, which makes my heart soar<\/em>. \u00a0I wanted to go through and respond to each comment, but then realized that would clutter up the “entry” aspect, so decided against it, but hopefully all of you are reading this and know how overwhelmed with gratitude I am for all your love! \u00a0That post is going down in my book as my favorite, because reading through the comments will be my go-to pick-me-up forever. \u00a0You guys are the best!!!!!!!!<\/p>\n

Ok, blah blah blah, I’ll get on with it.<\/p>\n

Wall art project number two! \u00a0Although I will say, I’m really liking the way it looks here in this corner, so much that my original plan to have it go on my future gallery wall is probably not happening anymore. \u00a0So while this isn’t going towards project gallery wall, I still feel the need to to share with you how\u00a0crazy\u00a0easy it is to make this chic copper art.<\/p>\n

The inspiration, very simply, came from wanting to use this copper tape<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"CopperIt’s been hiding in my closet for almost a year now, which is what happens with most things I get without knowing at all what I want to do with them. \u00a0I\u00a0always trusted the idea for this tape would hit me eventually, and in this case it took me a year, ha!<\/p>\n

I traced the frame insert onto poster board, then cut it out to act as the canvas. \u00a0For the copper tape, I peeled of the backing just on the end of the tape and wrapped it over the edge of the poster board. \u00a0While peeling off the rest of the backing, I slid my hand over the copper tape to stick it onto the poster board diagonally like so. \u00a0I repeated this all around in a radial design, making sure each strip of copper tape intersected at the same point.<\/p>\n

Easy, right?<\/p>\n
