It easily allows you to print off an image much larger on multiple sheets of paper. If this seems confusing for you, here is a very easy option.
If you are savvy on the computer, you can use a variety of programs (Microsoft Word, Photoshop, Scrapbooking or card making software) to make the image the size you want and to print it as a poster (on multiple sheets). Choose one of the bigger images and right click on the photo to save it to your desktop. To do this, first do a Google image search for your state. Next you will need to print out a map of your state. I painted the wood with brown spray paint and allowed to dry.Ĥ. Leave the wood natural and stain it, or paint it a solid color. You need to put this one before you begin because it will be too difficult to add it once you have all the nails and string art in place on the other side.ģ.

On the back of the wood, install the picture hanging hardware so you can hang up your piece when you are finished. It was fun! After I had the wood sanded and painted, the actual nails and string art took about two hours.
Overall, I did not think this state string art project was hard. Hopefully you'll get some tips from both sources to make this state string art project go smoothly. I will post here what I did to make this, and you can compare with Moriya's tutorial. She has a wonderful sense of humor, and some great DIYs for the home. I really found myself enjoying her blog, and laughing out loud. I'm not sure if she was the first to come up with this or not, but it was her photo with a heart around the city that made me want to make one of these for Cleveland, Ohio. she has a complete tutorial and great photos. I did find Moriya from The Harpster Home blog. but since the actual idea is not mine I wanted to hunt down some original sources. The wall space is small but a square piece of work is what I needed. I was looking for a piece of art to place on our side wall in our main foyer. But the tutorial can be followed to make any type of string art - only the pattern changes. This tutorial is going to describe the top left photo above, the state of Ohio. Popular in the 70's but now we are seeing it everywhere these days - even at Target. Plates, cups, napkins, and utensils were all solid yellow from the dollar store.String art is back folks. I love how cheap and reusable and festive and easy to store tissue paper decorations are. The rest of the decorations were tissue paper garland and fans and balls left over from previous parties. I’ve always used Publisher for that in the past, but now that we have a Mac, I found an app called PosteRazor that allowed me to print a saved photo out on multiple pages, then I trimmed the edges with my rotary cutter, and taped them together.

The font I used is a free download here. If you download and install the font, it will show up in PicMonkey on the “yours” tab on the fonts page. There are little dots of color in the corner that you can grab to make the letters match the existing banner colors. If your child’s name has letters in it that aren’t in my banner, and you’d like to personalize it, you can open the blank one in PicMonkey and add whichever letters you need. Just select each letter you’d like to print to spell whatever you’d like. You can download the photo and letter images I made onto your computer. I made a free download of the printable banner here. It turns out that one of those limits is throwing the same party for the same people two weekends in a row. We’ve moved parties early and late to accommodate the new arrivals, and for the past few years Bobby and Gus have shared a party since they have the same interests and friends and even I have limits. But, as a testament to my extraordinary doggedness, I have kept it up. Which was all fine and good until we ended up with four kids’ birthdays in the thirty-seven days between October 26th and December 2nd. I’m not saying that every kid NEEDS that, just that it’s something I personally decided I wanted to do for my kids. I vowed that each of my kids would have a homemade birthday cake and a party every year, no matter how many of them we ended up with. I latched on to birthday parties as The Thing I had to maintain to make it Not Weird to have this many kids. I’m not sure why, but back early in my mothering journey, when it began to look like I was going to end up with more kids than, well, than I had previously realized was even POSSIBLE.
