Scrapbooking Wall Art

I've been meaning to add photos of my scrapbooking project for a while.  Not because I think it's the greatest thing ever invented but because I actually finished something I said I was going to do!!  And it did turn out pretty cool.

Way back in October, Brinkley and I went for a drive up in the mountains to go stick hunting.  We were looking for semi-straight sticks.  We found two with potential and brought them home where they sat in the living room for a few months.  So the last time Brent was home I took advantage of the extra set of hands and we got everything up on the wall.

Here was my brilliant idea for cheap living room decor.  Sticks - free.  Leather and horseshoe nails - free (because Brent bought them and I have no idea how much he paid).  Sheet protectors and scrapbook pages were already in my supply!!



I had to crop out the mess that is currently the living room.  I spent the day scrapbooking yesterday so I have stuff spread out everywhere!!



I think the project turned out great.  I'll be able to change out the pages to correspond with each season or holiday.  I figure that I've worked hard on my scrapbooking and I can get a double life out of my work by displaying some pages.  How often do you really open an album and look through it??  Not very often??  Same here.  At least this way, my hard work doesn't go completely forgotten.
