I have a quick project for you.
I wanted a small floral with late summer flowers.
"Smitten with Sunflowers" is my moniker these days.
I tried my hand at a small watercolor.
Not in love.
I came across a print while cleaning out a closet.
These flowers of the month were super popular prints.
I'd collected quite a few of them from thrift stores.

They were widely copied and ended up being seen everywhere.
I was over it but I thought I could reuse a section of the floral to create a late summer print.
There were a couple of different frames in the garage to choose from.
This little black one with the gold is cute.
It is about 4 by 6.
Horizontal looked the best to me.
This was cardboard and needed to be cut with a razor blade knife.
Working quickly prevented a "DIYer in a hot garage" sort of medical emergency.
It was of utmost importance that we have a little print here by the sink in the powder room.
I was too lazy to walk into the kitchen and get a hammer to pull out a nail that was stuck in the wall but not too lazy to create this new piece from an old print and risk a hot garage incident.
The other side of the sink got a candle, some silk flowers in a mason jar and a new bar of soap.
The flowers appear to be made out of microfiber.
It's my favorite type of faux.

Have you ever cropped art before?
Have a great day.
