The Family

I’ve wanted a pretty copy of “The Family: A Proclamation to the World” on our walls for some time now. Well, I finally took matters into my own hands and made one! First, I found a frame at a garage sale ($6…should have bargained for lower price, but I’m just not good at it!) that I spray painted a dark walnut color (the frame was gold/white/linen and chipped). Then, I opened up my trusty photoshop and began creating. I printed it at Costco (I’m not always a fan of their printing, but this time they did good), then, I took the painted frame and the print to my favorite framer (ABC Mat and Design) and just a few short days later, ta-da! I am so, so happy with the result!! The finished size is 20x24…
