I love Valentine’s Day! In the spirit of all things lovey-dovey I got inspired to make a fun piece of art for our bedroom… using lipstick! I have been pinning lipstick prints (on my valentine board) like crazy for the past few weeks. I love the simple visual statment that kiss prints can make. So pretty, feminine and personal.
First, cut a piece of white cardstock slightly larger than your frame or matte size. Go to town with lipstick + kisses! This step is slightly embarassing, but also really fun.
These are all the lipsticks I used, a few of my favorites!
Next, just frame your kiss print and personalize it with a note on the back. There you have it… instant, personal artwork for your bedroom!
What do you think? Is this something you would enjoy in your home? What are your Valentine’s plans? I think we are going to take a little weekend trip to celebrate and relax. xo. Elsie

Totally the best Valentine’s project I have ever seen. You Rock.
Does the lipstick smudge when you put it in the frame under the glass??
This is a great idea, and super cute! I am a little gutted I didn’t think of this around V day! Maybe next time 🙂
Oh, my god! This is so cute! I’m totally going to try this.
