How to frame and display an inspiring message in your home

You really are stronger than you think! Isn’t it a thing that we tell other people the message we most need to hear ourselves?

The learning curve over the last month has been massive as I have figured out how to get my art onto t-shirts, then get the t-shirt colours I want, and fulfil my promise for them all to be individually numbered. All while still creating gorgeous artwork for Intrinsic and taking care of my year 12 as it gets to the business end of her time at school,

So yes, note to self Sandra, you ARE stronger than you think.

[And if you are needing this reminder, I believe in you. You can do hard things. Life is super challenging at the moment, so I want to remind you, if you feel a little wobble and need someone to chat to, just send me an email or DM me.]

I shared this image on instagram way back in March. It had such a great response that I filed away the idea that this should be my email sign up thank you gift.

It turns out that is actually not as easy to do as I thought it would be. Classic Sandra optimism strikes again!! So from wanting to share this on Friday, well actually two weeks ago, I have finally ticked thank you gift off my to do list.

In no particular order here is a giant thank you to everyone who has:

  1. Bought a t-shirt or hoodie

  2. Liked, commented on, saved or shared one of my posts

  3. Ordered a portrait from me

  4. Or chatted with me in person about my new business venture and given me a confidence boost to keep going.

I really do appreciate you all.

My tips for printing and framing

  1. Choose photo quality print to get the best colours. (I printed my version at office works, the colours on my home printer can be temperamental!)

  2. Choose a frame. It obviously fits perfectly in an A4 frame, or one with an A4 size mat. Check out Kmart, Ikea, Spotlight or Country Road for nice options. I really like it in the square frame. I bought it from Spotlight and it is currently on sale. I just trimmed 24mm from the top and from the bottom to make it fit.

  3. Pop your print into your frame and choose a spot where you’d like to display it. I like using 3M velcro tape for hanging light weight frames. Use a spirit level if you have family members who will judge wonky frames! Or just eyeball it, if you’re using the velcro tape you can always adjust it later.

  4. Sit back and enjoy your handy work and remind yourself how just how strong you are.

Thanks again for being so awesome!
