A couple of weeks ago I decided it was time to give my office a little facelift. Being that I’m on a tight budget with “unnecessary” expenses (though I happen to think it’s completely necessary to work in a beautiful office), I had to get crafty with my decor. Deciding to use what I had available plus a couple of inexpensive purchases here and there, I was able to achieve exactly what I was going for. Using a few kraft letters from The Paper Source and some of my favorite LAMA paper (Almacenero Tissue Paper: Pescado), I created some great personalized art for my office walls. The best part? The whole project cost me less than 20 bucks!

LAMA’s lovely paper from Argentina is perfect for a variety of art projects and pretty enough to frame and hang as is. With large sheets ranging from $3.80-$8.00, it’s an inexpensive way to add something unique in your home. Have a super crafty friend or family member? I can’t think of a more thoughtful gift for the budget-conscience gift-giver.
