DIY Paint Sample Craft, Ok Sure!

Hello People, I'm not dead yet. But look, it was Christmas time, we all know how that is! Granted I had some down time, but I used a whole bunch of that for Crafting! So today, I bring you your very own Craft DIY yourself blog post from yours truly! You should also know that this is not the only one that you will be seeing here!

So today's project was done on the first Snow Day, and it was all done with things I just happened to have laying around my room. The first thing I had laying around? Paint Samples.

So after searching the internet for forever, I decided to use them to make a picture for my house that said "Ok Sure" because when a certain someone asked me to be his Bride, that's what I said (articulate, right?!). My 15 year old little sister thinks this is hilarious, therefor, I needed to have it somewhere in my house. So I grabbed a cup of coffee and went to town. 

Great coffee cup, right?! Ha!

What I did was cut out circles. Big circles and then smaller ones. And then I started to combine colors. I'm not a really good craft planner, so most of these were just hap-hazard, and I wasn't really going for a color scheme. If you are more OCD (like my Beloved) I'm sure you could spend hours getting just the right color combo! Me however? I just threw them together. I did place them together BEFORE gluing them down (this was a big deal for me ok people!) It started to look a little something like this:

I used clear glue just because it was there. In hindsight, using a sturdier paper would have made for less wrinkles. After I got the circles glued together, I started placing them on the paper where I wanted them.

After I did that I used several green paint sample chips to make the letter Ok Sure. I glued those onto OTHER paint chips and THEN I glued them down to the paper. The final product looked a little something like this:

I had a lot of fun with this project, and the glue and frame and paint samples are all FREE! And if you really needed a frame, the Dollar store has some good ones! 

I'm excited to get to hang this somewhere in my house. I like the idea of making things to make my Beloved and I's house look like our home. I'm learning the difference. He likes the idea of me making things for OUR little house. I can't help but smile at all these wedding pictures I see where the bride is holding a sign that said, "I said yes" or the groom is holding a sign that says "she said yes". 

Me, I said, "Ok, Sure." :)

And I'm so glad that I did. 

The aftermath!
