Using Lauri's Drawing to Decorate the Wall

Lauri likes to draw. Most of the time, I don’t collect her drawing. I only keep if I found it interesting or unusual.

Did I tell you before that my house was full of clutter? I did? OK then. It is still full of clutter now. There was this small divan + matrys under the staircase and we just dumped everything on top of them. My eyes hurt every time I passed that section, and I passed many times a day. So, I decided to clear the stuff and turned the place to become some sort of resting or relaxing space.

I put “Tulip Medallion in Pond” by Denyse Schmidt fabric to cover the matrys and put some matching patchwork pillows on it.


Since the wall quite empty, I decided to put some pictures. Then suddenly, I got an idea, why don’t I use Lauri’s drawings? I gave her a piece of paper and asked her to draw something on it, then I framed it using the IKEA frame.

Awwwwww...... Isn't this cute? She said they are: Mama, Fiori, Me and Papa
She even put some gathering on my skirt

Since her drawing turned out too small, I decided to put some “inner frame” using the same matching fabric.


Hmmmm! Actually not bad. I will ask her to do more drawings :)
