But the Fruit of the Spirit is....

So in our new house i decided to do this wall texture technique (Martha Stewart). You use these combs and add glaze to your paint and then after millions of yards of painter's tape and a lot of patiences to get the lines straight - you get the wall you see here!

It turned out GREAT but it needed some art....pictures....anything. So in church after a friend told me about a family that painted the fruits of the spirit on their steps i was inspired! I wanted these precious gifts hung somewhere in our house too! Ergo- the Fruit of the spirit wall.  

So i took some old frames and bought some shaped wooden blocks and spray painted them white. Then after carefully choosing 6 different spray paint colors (i could have got away with less) I designed and stenciled and xacto-knifed these meticulous letters you see here. In hind-sight i realize i could have designed these in illustrator, printed, and framed them in half the time and money...shwoops. 
I had fun anyway :)
