Mini Canvas

Filed Under: Photography, Tutorials Tagged With: lifenreflection, sponsored

Kristy from Life-n-Reflection, sent me this adorable Mini Canvas Set and I decided to actually make a few mini canvas. I bought a 4 pack of 6″ canvases at walmart for about $8. Then I bought Mod Podge because (gaspp….) I have never used Mod Podge in my life!! So I am definitely no expert but I will tell you what I learned.

Mini Canvas

blog (1)I printed out the canvas from Kristy on regular paper. I had Card Stock and I think it may have worked better because it took a lot to get all the air bubbles out. I originally put mod podge on the canvas, tried to just stick it on with and then immediately cover with mod podge but that cause a lot more bubbles. So the next time I stuck it on, let it dry for about 5-10 minutes then covered with mod podge. Then when that layer dried I put one more layer of mod podge. Mini Canvas

    Those canvases are so cute! I understand - my first time using Mod Podge I thought for sure I had ruined my project. It takes some getting used to but is so worth it.

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.
Sweet pea. Sweet pea.

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Two and a half months after her first tooth she fi Two and a half months after her first tooth she finally lost her second tooth. It’s been hanging on barely. Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.

I made the mistake of not repotting my philodendro I made the mistake of not repotting my philodendron white wizard when I first got it, I also didn’t give it enough sunlight. So it was growing soooooo slow. I finally repotted it a couple weeks ago, moved it closer to a window, and started using plant food from @happyhappyhouseplant. Not sure what made the most difference but the leaf opened and now a new one is already starting. Hoping it won’t take as long this time.
