before & after : kitchen wall

i posted about this project we did with the little dude's artwork a few months ago. while i love the artwork, i just think it's too small for the wall. over the weekend i did a little project to remedy the problem.....


here's the after! i measured and taped off a large rectangle and painted it (in an accent color found on the other side of the kitchen) behind the artwork to make it appear larger and more balanced. i think it made all the difference!
