Song Lyrics as Wall Art

Song Lyrics as Wall Art

I love music. In fact, I don’t just love music, I live music. If you have ever read my About Me page, you know that my musical tastes are incredibly varied. I’m talking Patsy Cline one minute and KISS the next. Yep, I’m that girl. I even made my daughter a playlist before she was born to make sure she was raised up on the classics. The child has yet to listen to an actual lullaby or kids song. We have dance parties to Jason Aldean, Scissor Sisters, and Poison among others. The wheels on the bus what? Not here. So, obviously, music is very important to me.

When I chose the graphics to use for my DIY bedroom wall art, for the most part, I chose images that were special or had a connection to my husband and I in some way. Besides those prints, I wanted to put something else that had a significant meaning up. What better than song lyrics? So, I took lyrics from our favorite song and put together a print on Picmonkey to use song lyrics as wall art.

Song Lyrics as Wall Art
Yes, people, our favorite song is “Your Love” by The Outfield. I’m not older than Grunt Labor, and we don’t know a Josie, but on our second date this song came on, I turned it up, he looked at me and asked, “Do you like this song?” I responded with, “Its my favorite.” He smiled devilishly and drove on. Music has the amazing power to take you back to a place in time and this one takes me back to that exact moment.
Enough mushiness.
To make this in Picmonkey, all I did was upload a linen background that I used from the master bedroom wall art, then I wrote in the first few lines of the song, using different fonts for each line. I added the wreath type image (I’m not quite sure what that’s called) as an overlay. It was a graphic I already had, and then just added text in the middle of it to put our initial. The banner on the bottom right was an overlay available through Picmonkey.
Now, I just need a frame for this along with the other new wall art.
Frugal frame ideas, anyone?
