If I had to choose one shop that summed up my personality I would absolutely choose Kate Spade. Everything is bright and colorful, yet sophisticated, with a little bit of sass. It’s the perfect combination if you ask me.
One of my Christmas presents from Tom last year was an adorable hot pink Kate Spade planner, and I use it every single day. Each month showcases a fun watercolor, and I was pleasantly surprised a few months ago when I realized that Kate Spade gives out free postcards each month with the corresponding water color on it. These bright postcards are too pretty just to be used as a card, so I immediately realized that they would look perfect on a sassy and girly gallery wall. Thank goodness Tom is a good sport and lets me decorate how I please!
I bought the white frames at Ikea (called the Ribba), because that was a simple and affordable framing solution for these 4×6 inch beauties. I had to trim the sides a tiny amount, but it was almost a perfect fit after I removed the matting.
So far, I’ve framed 3 of these cards for myself, and I have a second set for a certain special friend who introduced me to Kate Spade a few years ago. I hope she likes them!
I hung these pieces over my desk, which I’ll share on the blog soon! If you’re interested in making these fun (and budget friendly) pieces of wall art, you have 4 months left to gather 4 cards. Just make sure you visit Kate Spade each month because they often run out and don’t have any extras from the previous month.
Love that wall art! It is absolutely perfect!

I love LOVE this idea Katie! Do you find the postcards online or in store? I also love the Ikea frames! They are such a bargain.
