DIY Project: Easy Watercolor on Canvas Nursery Sign
Psst! Pin this NOW and save for later!
If you’re like me, everything in the nursery had to match an overarching color scheme. When we turned my then office into the second nursery, the walls were already a soft green. And since the nursery was going to be for a little baby girl, we decided we wanted hints of pink. There we had it: pale green, soft pink and white.
Luckily, after a few months of rearranging furniture and a ton of DIY projects later, it all came together. I made a pastel floral mobile. I painted a large mirror and a handful of up cycled frames white. And then I made a nursery sign with a subtle pink watercolor background and voila!
Making a watercolor baby name sign come to life on a canvas is an easy way to add a statement piece to your nursery walls.
