Spoon Wall Decoration

My husband and I have lived in our home for years now and the only room we have given little thought to in terms of decorating is our bedroom.   It kind of seemed silly, I mean, who would see it besides us?  I would occasionally pull it off my "To Do Someday" list with good intention only to return it a few weeks later. 

Then, I stumbled upon this great little decorating book by chance and my thoughts about decorating shifted a bit as the decorating itch returned.   (The Nesting Place by Myquillyn Smith)

On a cold winter weekend we shipped the kids off to Grandpa and Grandma's house and our project was underway.  Naturally, I wanted to spend as little as possible and am pretty pleased with some of my finds (another post, another time).  One of my most favorite "frugal finds' in the room thus far is the wall decor.  After a walk through Pier One and Target I knew there had to be a better way.

I enjoy crafts although I would not call myself particualrly talented in the area so I was thrilled to find a DIY wall decor piece that was simple and afforable.  Anyone with a glue gun and plastic spoons can pull this one off!

Check out Craftaholics Anonymous for the instructions if you are interested!  I made 2 spoon wall hangings in only a few hours and spent around $10 total in supplies.  I love the result!!!  Now if I could just finish the rest of the room!

Finished Project!

Hanging on the wall!  So simple!!
