Saw It :: Pinned It :: Did It {Bathroom Art}

I've been wanting to add some fresh bathroom art to our main floor bath for a while now, and I couldn't seem to find exactly what I was looking for.  
Naturally, I took to Pinterest for inspiration.  

I didn't find something exact, but I did find several pieces of bathroom art that I combined to make my own.  
Take a look at my inspiration board, here

What You Need:
4, 8x8 canvasses
Stencil / lettering
1 large foam brush
1 small paint brush 
2 small tubes main color paint
1 small tube lettering paint 

[I didn't end up using the large paint brush or the stencil tape]



^^paint canvasses with 2 thick coats of paint :: let dry completely^^


^^using a pencil, trace outlines of letters with your stencil^^

I chose "Lather. Rinse. Relax. Repeat." 


^^paint letters with one coat, and let dry completely^^

My gosh.  This tested my patience.  
I am not a very good DIY-er. 


^^add second coat, let dry, and you're done^^




I love how it turned out. 
It isn't perfect -- but that's okay, because I made it myself.
