Z Gallerie inspired eye chart artwork

One of my favorite stores to drool over is Z Gallerie.  In my dream home, I would love to have a number of their furniture pieces and furnishings.

The other day I was poking around on their website {I need something to do during the Olympic commercial breaks}, I came across this adorable piece of artwork...

It's a bit out of my budget {especially since my taste in artwork changes pretty quickly}.  So I decided to make my own.

It took all of about 15 minutes using my computer {figuring out the font sizes for each line took the longest}.  I printed it off from my printer {rather than having it run from a high quality printer}.  I had a document frame on hand, hung it by the bedside, and voila!

My free bedside LOVE artwork.

Thank you for stopping by.

  1. I change my mind all of the time too. I always think I have a "style" and then it changes again. Good copy cat!

  3. I have been trying to decide on a saying for an eye chart piece. Yours is pretty clever and a lot less involved than the plan I had made. I might borrow the instructions!

  5. Looks great! And so simple. Isn't it funny that people actually go to a store and purchase stuff like this when it's sooooo easy to make? Thanks for sharing at Etcetorize this week!

    1. Thank you. Originally I was going to make it into an anniversary card for my hubby, but ended up doing this instead.

  7. Thanks for linking up @ Sugar Bee Crafts! I totally agree: the hardest part was the font sizing and spacing! I just sat here working on it but the result is beyond words adorable!

  13. Adorable! Way better than the original! Wish I was better at the computer! DId you just do it in MS Word? Did you have to use text boxes and all those things I can't figure out? Nice work!

    1. Thank you so much, you're comments are so sweet. I did do it MS Word...nothing fancy about it. I just typed out the letters on different lines and then adjusted the font sizes and spacing for each line.
