Typography Canvas Art For The Family Room

Today I am excited to show you some inexpensive Typography canvas art that you can do for your home…today. Walk into any home store or open up most catalogs and you will find tons of typography canvas. Love the look, just don’t love the price. I also like that I can have a canvas that says exactly what I want it to say.So I thought about an easy way to create a piece of art that would reflect how we feel in our home….love.

All among the crumbs in between the couch cushions, chocolate milk stains on the rug, toys overflowing in the corner basket and all kinds of fuzzy stuffed animals taking up more space on the couch then me….love lives here.

Despite the fact that I have not held the TV remote or watched an episode of Designers Challenge on HGTV since my kids were born,  my husbands idea of watching tv together is catching an episode of “Hows it Made”,and lucky me because I know every little chugger train on Chuggington, that’s really okay cause……. love lives here.

 So to give me one more reason to smile when I walk into a room filled with so much laughter, joy and couch cushion crumbs, I made this wall art to symbolism who and what exactly lives here…. love lives here.

  1. I love the art, Laura. I can totally relate to never controlling what is on tv anymore! Now I'm going to be singing the Chugginton song for the rest of the day. lol

  2. Crazy but – hands down – best time of our, and their, Life.
    And a second opportunity in being a child, a teen… again.
    love the color! love the idea! and absolutely love your description.

  3. Turned out excellent.

    Hey, this week I visited a crayon factory and watched a man hand make mouth harps all from the comfort of my bed.

    Bliss

  4. Are you going to Haven this August? (I hope so.) I had such fun last time and enjoyed meeting you in person. I'm looking forward to going again this year.

  5. Yes,Laura. I do have a question(or two), as I WILL be making this, like right now…How big is the canvas? Why have I not heard of Chip Board Letters, and why it is better to trace and hand paint, then to paint said letters and affix them to the canvas? What size are those letters? and…..What is the name and brand of the paint you used, please?
    Thank you, 😀
