An Attraction to Vintage Paint-by-Number Wall Art

letslovevintage

Did I ever do a paint-by-number? You bet I did. 

If only I had saved them from years ago.

Vintage paint-by-number art is very trendy.

Adding a piece brings a tongue in cheek, 

don't-be-so-serious punch to your home decor.

A nod to days gone by when we did art kits instead of video games. 

An appreciation for wanna-be artists. (Like me.)

Framed or unframed. Often in pairs. Usually in muted tones.

Common themes are nautical, Christian scenes, horses, 

Asian, still life, clowns, hunting dogs, and ballerinas.

Plus reproductions of the great classics.

I had a good time looking through loads of them on Etsy.

Here are several of my favorites, complete with links.

Scripture Art by Lens of Light Photography

Carli Milacci's passion for travel has taken her to beautiful countries 
around the globe such as Italy, Switzerland and Israel.
Among her favorite destinations within the US are Wyoming, and Alaska.
She's had many unique opportunities to take gorgeous photos, 
and has decided to use her talent for photography to bring glory to God.

Carli bases the creation of her wall art on Deuteronomy 6:5-9, 
which instructs us to always keep God's Word on our minds, 
placing it "on the doorposts of your house and on your gates." 
The artistic addition of Scripture to her photos encourages us to do just that. 
She hopes her art will help us to "be reminded of God's promises, 
meditate on His goodness, and rejoice in all that 
He has given to us and done for us in Christ Jesus."

Carli accepts special orders; if you have a favorite Bible verse
she'd be happy to add it to any of her photographs!
She also offers any of her pieces translated into Spanish.
