Just start with a blank canvas...

I'm always on the hunt for unique inexpensive diy decor ideas. I think merskine and I should become friends, this is great! She found her inspiration in a InStyle magazine tour of Molly Sims NYC house, how creative and cool is that?

And simple... pre-stretched canvases {she had lying around}, painting them a soft taupe color, using simple chipboard stencils from an office supply store for the lettering with two different colors of stencil paint and hot gluing orange ribbon around the canvas edges for an extra pop of color {and the text, an old '90's love song}.
