Since there are 7 people in our house, we decided to do Secret Santa instead of spending our very limited stipend money on 6 gifts. We set a limit of 5 to 10 dollars, and drew names from a hat. I picked my roommate Jenni, and decided to do something crafty that had a little more meaning than something from Target or whatever. I kicked around a few ideas, but inspiration hit me when I saw one of her shirts in the Goodwill bin that sits outside my door. This was the end result:
The frame is an 11x14 canvas. Her shirt is the background, then I used pieces of music and handmade paper as leaves. I threw in a few splashed of gold acrylic paint as well. It's all covered in Mod Podge. It isn't exactly what I was hoping for, but I like it. Now it's chilling on Jenni's wall by her bed.
