I found this on Pinterest:


If you didn't want to make this permanent on your wall, then do it on large canvas! I am thinking about this for a guest room. Just would have to work out a grid and then fill in with X's. I am going to search out some cross stitch patterns for an ocean theme...

Ya, people are clever! And TG they share photos!

I love the simplicity of it, no learning curve to it.

I like the scale of it, how you can make it as large or small as you want! And only limited by the paints you have! (colors)

What a great idea! I don't care for the overall room design...the balance is off, but that cross stitch is fabulous!

Belstone,
I saw that the room balance was off and I passed it over, but could not forget the cross stitch and thought it was good work, so I went back and got the print. I was bothered by the right side being that oval frame there... oh well perfectionists that we are... we pick up on things like this, the original photo is on a Chinese or Japanese site (can't tell the difference in their writing.

So ignore the decor just look at the art! lol
