Did you know that you can find free wall art online that you can print at home? Well, if you are a blogger or if you follow a lot of blogs, then I know you know this already. But if you don’t fall into that group, then I’m thinking you mightn’t be aware that there are many talented bloggers and graphic artists out there who create ‘printable’ art, and offer it at no charge to their readers simply as a little reward for coming by.… {more…}

I am excited that A Pop of Pretty is finally in a position to take requests for interior decorating consultations! Over the past 2 years, I’ve fielded many e-mails from my blog readers, both local and non-local, asking for assistance in decorating projects. But, without a decorating consulting partner to work with, I didn’t have the capacity to take many projects on. Instead, I focused primarily on decor writing and providing ideas here on my blog. But things have changed!… {more…}

First, before talking about wall art, I wanted to thank Rhoda at Southern Hospitality for featuring our home in her “Feature Friday” at her blog today. Rhoda is a maven of the decor blogging world, and I was lucky enough to meet her at Haven this year ( a huge thrill in itself!). I was beyond thrilled and grateful when she asked if she could do a feature post on our humble abode.
Speaking of Friday, I’m not afraid to admit that I’m going to make things easy on myself today with this whole “31 Days” business by pulling out a great diy wall art idea from the archives! Today I’m going to show you how I’ve created fun art from scrapbook paper!… {more…}

For yesterday’s do-it-yourself (DIY) wall art idea, I sent you digging in your dusty shoebox of old greeting cards, and for today’s idea, I’m heading to the china cabinet! If there’s one decor ‘trend’ that I’ve unintentionally embraced over the past year, it seems to be decorative plates! I can’t seem to get enough of them. In fact, you might even say that I’m a little wall art plate-obsessed…
Yup, just a little.
Plates are an easy and affordable way to add charm to a room, and they are great additions to a gallery wall grouping.… {more…}

If you’ve been following my blog, it should come as no surprise that one of my favorite diy decorating projects is to create wall art and wall art groupings. That’s why I chose DIY Wall Art as my topic for the ‘31 Days’ party going on at blogs all over the place for the month of October.
Every day in October, I’ll post an easy and affordable way to create fab wall art. If you’re new here, or if you haven’t been by in a few days, you can catch up here (Create a Free, Frameable Family Monogram) and here (Group Things You Love: Gallery Walls!).… {more…}

Today’s post about DIY Wall Art Ideas (the second in my “31 Days” Series) is focused on gallery wall tips.
I find that the best way to breathe new life into any piece of wall art I already own is to group it with other pieces I love. I’ve created several of these ‘gallery wall’ groupings throughout my home. The effect is so much more dramatic than hanging one small piece of art. Plus, when grouped with other pieces, that wall art that I was growing tired of suddenly feels new again.… {more…}

Just like last year, over the month of October, I’ll be participating in “Nester’s 31 Days” party going on around Blog Land. (You can read more about it in my introductory post here!) I’ll be posting one easy and affordable DIY Wall Art idea every day this month. (Yup, that’s 31 ideas! Woohoo!)
Today’s idea is a fabulous and free printable family monogram! I’ve seen a few places on the web where you can find these kinds of printables, but my favorite is the custom, antique monogram found over at Wedding Chicks.… {more…}

Welcome to A Pop of Pretty, a Canadian home decorating blog that chronicles my love of home decor and pretty things. I'm out to prove (mostly to myself!) that a pretty home is still possible amid the circus of 3 young kids, including twin toddlers. {More...}
