paint chip banners

confession: i did not  come up with this all on my own. in fact, i think i saw something on pintrest awhile back where someone had made some awesome easter decorations out of paint chips. how i wish i could find that picture for you.

so back when we were picking out the paint colors to our house, i collected a large amount of these martha stewart samples.

also awhile back, i used these to make a fourth of july banner, and now it's hanging on the wall in one of our guest rooms.

and you aren't seeing things, it actually says 'welcome home.' HA!

i love paint chips because they are free. and you can use anything to tie them together with/tape them, glue them, whatever you have laying around. just go to your local home depot and stock on up!



so i have been saving a few orange and grey paint chips because i think they kind of look like candy corns. here are a few that are currently put up around the house.

the possibilities are endless. you could cut shapes out of these--i just did triangles because i'm really horrible with scissors.

 ok, so get going! go out to home depot and find some colors that make you smile!
