College Themed Gifts

Hey y'all!

So I was having a little trouble transferring my pictures from my phone into my iPhoto, so that's why I haven't blogged this week! I've been busy with a lot of custom orders and a few new listings on my Etsy page...so excited! There's a link to my Etsy shop on the left hand side of my blog in case you want to check them out. I've been posting a lot of my projects on my Instagram, too, so be sure to follow me for a little daily inspiration! 

I know a lot of high school seniors have been hearing back from colleges lately and deciding where they want to go, so I thought I would post a few of my college themed canvases I have been doing lately. I have a few custom orders with personalized touches, but I can't post them yet because they're Christmas presents. If you know someone who is going to college next year, these are some of my most popular picks!

Still my most popular canvas, the Texas Forever canvas with the Texas flag is perfect for any proud Texan. 

Another picture of a Texas Forever order.

This design was for Hannah E., a Texas girl heading off to school at Arkansas. You can take the girl out of Texas, but you can't take the Texas out of the girl.

My paisley canvases are some of my favorites to do because each canvas is different, like a snowflake! Everything is completely freehanded, and one of a kind. School colors or even the colors of a room are often requested for these!



More UT canvases!

 I love doing the Texas A&M tradition canvases! There are many more of these on my Instagram account, so check them out!

Last summer I had so many lovely girls who ordered canvases from me who were about to start their first year at Arkansas! I loved getting to know more about the school's traditions and being able to master doing that razorback; woo pig sooie!

Oklahoma Sooner canvas; love this quote!

Another fun Oklahoma Sooner tradition canvas!

Oklahoma State Cowboy canvas avaliable on my Etsy shop: OSU COWBOY CANVAS BY BKRAFTY

Last but definitely not least- the Sam Houston State University tradition canvas!

If you see anything you'd like to order, head over to my Etsy shop and see if there is a listing up of a design you'd like. If not, send me a message and we can build a custom order!!

More posts coming soon! XO

Texas bound!

university of texas themed canvases

 Happy Tuesday, everyone! I know graduation season is pretty much coming to an end, but I still would love to share these Texas inspired canvases I painted last week. One of my wonderful friends named John showed his mom my blog, and she asked me to paint these two canvases for her niece and a friend. The two canvases both have a little longhorn that I freehanded in the left corner. I've been working on that for a while, so I'm pretty proud of it! Let's get a closer look at each canvas:

soccer ball pattern with a little burnt orange accent

 For Cara, I painted a soccer ball pattern because she will be playing soccer at UT next year! ! I really liked the concept, and I thought the burnt orange ("Persimmon" by Americana) detailing brought a fun element to the design.

burnt orange and white chevron

Chevron has officially taken over as my most requested pattern! It has been neck and neck for a while, but I think chevron edged it out this week. For Caroline's canvas,  I did a fun chevron pattern with her name in a dainty script font- complete with another freehanded longhorn, of course!

I hope you girls love your canvases! Thank you Mrs. Curtiss (and John and Emily, too!) Congratulations, and Hook 'Em!

Woo Pig Sooie!

Wow! I have been getting so many orders lately, and I love it. The majority of the orders are for girls going to Arkansas next year! I've gotten pretty good at doing the razorback if I do say so myself. The main reason I have been getting so many is because of Temi! She was the first Arkansas bound order I had, and she shared my site with all of her friends. I couldn't be more grateful! I Painted a few canvases for her and about six or so for her friends. I slipped a little Starbucks gift card in with her canvases as a small thank you for all of the business she sent me. :) Let's take a look at these canvases!
