Kitchen Salvage window "Cocina" or "Cucina"

Add some real authentic flare to you kitchen or your living space with an a gorgeous salvage window. It can be hung on the wall, or my favorite way, from the ceiling with chain. I do all the hand painting to whatever you want it to say. Originally it said, "Cocina", which is Spanish, and then changed to the Italian version , "Cucina". Price varies on the window size and how many words you choose. This window measured approx. 18" long and 32" wide. The price for this window was $165.00

Glamorous Laundry Sign $45

THIS IS AN OOH SO CHIC~ Laundry Room Sign..I did this one custom for my friend Shannon. Her colors are very Tuscan, so I picked out a nice olive tone background and rubbed some mahogany wax on it. I will do this to your specifications as well. It can be what ever size you would like for the same price up to 15 x 12. Just let me know your dimensions. It can also say really anything. It can be something totally separate than a Laundry Room Sign...something in the kitchen or bathroom or office...you name it, i will do it! It also comes with the hardware on the back so it's ready to hang up if you would like. Great coming holiday deal for only $45...limited time on the price though, may be subject to change after the holidays..

Nicole, Sachin, & Taylor 24x24 Canvas Collage $299.99


This is the beautiful Shah Family in all there wonderful glory with their most precious treasure, Taylor. I know I have said this before, so this is for any new viewers...pictures on this blog don't come close to capturing the magic of this beautiful piece. This family LOVES each other. Look at their eyes...they adore each other. Thank you Nicole for providing me such amazing pictures of your great moments. I visited Nicole's house for the initial consult to get a good feel of her decor and color palet. She has a beautiful tuscan feel with rich warm colors. I love how the underlying colors on the collage pop out in between the pictures that your eyes are drawn to. It is very subtle to have them in the background, but important to tie into your home decor. She has a wonderful place to showcase it. I loved working with you Nicole. It was an awesome experience.

Keep in mind that there are several different angles to ONE collage. I do this so you can really see the different sides to everything...I know it gets a little confusing..SORRY!

This canvas size is a 24x24 and cost $299.99.

Huge Hamid Family 30x40 Collage $429.99

This is the Hamid Family. I met Aasia,  the mother at her home and we went over style ideas and colors. Her home is tastefully done in an amazing structural contemporary style. She knew exactly what colors she wanted intermixed in the collage. We picked out vivid oranges, red, burnt yellows and then mixed all the cool hardware and frames in. She had seen examples of other collages I have done off the blog and she loved the "off the edge" look that I do with the frames. Aasia wanted lots and lots of structure and lines into the collage plus all the fun embellishing that I do on everything. All the pictures are blinged out along jewelry and coats that they wore. All of the girls are separately showcased and then a couple different shots of the girls grouped together as well. I put in some beautiful quotes about sister's and the main family quote up at the top. It was so fun working on this, a first in the contemporary style for me! It will be a smashing hit in their home! I can't wait to see it hung up! Thanks for the experience with you Aasia!

Last Name Cobb Collage Art $499.99 36x36













This was done for my friend Shannon Cobb. She saw something similar to this hanging in my home with my last name (Yeager). She wanted this to be in her home too so we started scheming right away with colors and fabrics and fun cute details. Each of the letters of her name, showcases someone different in the family. "C" was for the dad, husband extraordinaire, and money maker hero Charlie. "O" was taken by Shannon and her loves in life. She adores many things but loves loves loves the beach in Hawaii. So I went with that idea and put real sand on the bottom for a wonderful textured element. "B" was then taken by her son Cael. All of his fun interests were incorporated into his square. The last letter is also "B" which was graced with their little angle Brooke. She loves all the fun details of being a princess right down to cupcakes and crowns. Shannon also wanted to put somewhere on Brooke's space a tiny piece of her baby blankie. Those are the sweet touches that makes the project turn into personal beauty. The price includes the frame and the choice of background fabric. The price however will be subject to change depending on how long the last name of choice would be.  This particular project cost $499.99 and the overall size of the frame is 36x36.

Engagement Collage 24x24 canvas $299.99


This is my one of my best friends daughter. Her name is Chelsea, (soon to be Mrs. Blaser). She is an amazing person and smart as a whip! She actually was my consistant babysister for four years when we lived in Ahwatukee (phx area) when my two oldest boys were just tiny guys.















I was so excited to do this collage for them. They are both amazingly gorgeous AND super nice people too. I am so happy for them both!! Their wedding date is June 19th 2010.

Chelsea said to keep with a traditional feel and for the main colors to be reds and blacks. I asked what their nicknames for each other were. I put those in the collage as well. What so cool about this art is that it is very personal. The extra touches I add mean something to my customers. No one in general is going to understand every little detail, but that's what makes them all so special. Scott's friends call him, "Blaser the amazer". So after Scott and Chelsea started dating, friends then referred to the couple as BTA 2 (squared). So I definitely had to put that on the collage somewhere!



Anyways, it is a gorgeous feature for a prominate space in your home that add's that punch of personality that most homes desperately need! AND it's an amazing timeless treasure that no one else will have and THAT is something that I think is very very cool...24x24 canvas the price is $299.99

My friend Kristin ask me if I would do a collage for her daughter's sweet
Grandma. I said that I would be happy to! She was a little concerned about getting all 6 grandkids on a 12x12 canvas. As you can see, it wasn't a problem at all! No matter how big or small your space is, I can make it work.. She sent me over great photographs of all the cousins. The sister in laws all decided on the quote "Cherish the moments" and also my absolute fav quote about grandchildren.. this is a 12x12 collage and the price is $169.99

Lamoreaux Grandchildren Collage 24x24 $299.99





















































This collage was created with a special someone in mind...My neighbor Caroline (who is one of my best customers...) decided to purchase a collage for her own mom and her mother-in-law for Mother's Day this year. This particular collage is for her mother-in-law and it is of all of the Lamoreaux grandkids from  three sets of families. There are 10 kids all together. It is the biggest group of grandkids I have done yet. It was fun putting them all together on a canvas. My brother-in-law Scott was over today and saw one for the first time. He said, "it makes the pictures look HD!" I thought that was the MOST perfect comparison to what an HD t.v. looks like and actually seeing one of my canvas' in person. Unfortunately, you cannot see it on the blog pics...It takes everything and it makes it just pop out at you like you are reallying seeing something in HD! This was a 24x24 canvas and is priced at $299.99.

Brooke & Cael 12x12 Canvas $169.99

















This is another collage Shannon Cobb ordered from me recently. It is just of her kids this time and it will be a gift to her MIL for Mother's Day, BUT SHHH! It's a surprise! She wanted something similar to the big one I did for her. She chose to do the same rich traditional style. It is pretty amazing how you can get this 'BIG' impact with a rather small space.

Carol Hatch Family 24x24 $299.99

















This gorgeous collage is of Carol Hatch's family. Many, many, many of you know her amazing store, "Designer Blvd"! This collage in the store all the of the time if you want to go and check it out in person. She has the most b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l kids and a knock out husband named Garland! The pictures were done by Kristen McBride which many of you know her as well. She is obviously very very good at her job. Her photography is unreal.
This was fun to do with Carol. She told me her likes and dislikes and she requested that I put two things on the collage that were sentimental to her family. One was their favorite scripture about Charity and the other was their family quote about Christ. It turned out amazing and it was such a privilege to create something so beautiful for such an amazing friend of mine.
Once again, this is a 24x24 canvas and the price is $299.99. You can pay through the store (Designer Blvd) or contact me to make your order.

Baptism Collage 12x12 $169.99
















This is my beautiful neighbor, Abby Lamoroeaux. This collage was done for her baptism pictures. I always pick out a special phrase or word for every collage. I could't decide on this one, because there's not just one thing to say about such a special amazing moment of baptism. So I have the word "cherish" in the picture she is holding a small glass Az Temple model. Then the phrase, "Daughter of a King" (which is my very favorite phrase for women and girls in general)! And then the beautiful phrase of I am a Child of God..."Lead me Guide me, Walk beside me. It is a very nice small collage done on a 12x12 canvas that hangs along side the big family canvas her mom had done.

The Lamoroeaux Family 24x24 $299.99
















Below is the same collage with different angles to see more details.
















This is the Lamoroeaux Family. They are neighbors of mine. Caroline already had these amazing photos taken of her family, and I think they are all simply gorgeous! She let me have free reign with the design in regards to the arrangement and colors. She did want a traditional timeless piece that wouldn't go out of style. So I picked out more nuetral colors that went well with their outfits. This hangs in her entryway in her home, and can I just tell you the "wow" factor that it gives off when you walk through her door? It is sooo incredible! In fact she loves this one so much, so is doing a seperate collage of each child to put into a gallery on her main feature wall. So far, she has two done of her two oldest kids with their baptism pictures.

Testimonial by Caroline:

Elena is one of the most talented women I know. Her ability to take the pictures I gave her and the freedom to run with it to produce what she does is amazing. While these pictures of the collage she did are awesome, they do not do them justice. You will be blown away when you see it in person! I have been so happy with her results that I have ordered several already, and will be even ordering more in the very near future. I am so glad I can call this creative, talented woman my friend!
Caroline Lamoroeaux











Engagement Collage 10x10 canvas $149.99















This is a 10x10 canvas of Matt King and his fiance, Kristin. I love it because it is of the most memorable moments they have shared so far of stuff they enjoy doing together. I always put a word on the collage that really sums of the people in it. Matt said to use the phrase "Picture Perfect", and I absolutely loved it! It's so cute with the frame around it! Once again, this is a great size for a very small space, like a bathroom nook or on an office desk. It doesn't take up much space, and it adds a big punch of personality!!

Jerry's Collage "God be with you till we meet again" 10x10 $149.99


























Many of you know, Vanessa (from the most amazing shop in the world....Designer Blvd). Her husband is serving our country in the middle east and didn't leave too long ago. I did a big canvas for her and her gorgeous family and after looking at the people in the collage for so many hours, it feels like I am kind of connected with them! (I think the long, late night hours will do that to anybody...) So when I heard that he would be gone from his family, I wanted to do something really special for him. I asked Vanessa to get me as many pictures as possible to smather onto a small canvas that would be easy for him to pack and take with him in the field. I shank the pictures done to about the size of a stamp and loaded as many sweet wonderful moments onto it as I could. Vanessa just sent it to him and I am excited to hear the feedback after her gets it! This is an amazing idea for anyone who travels a lot and it is very light weight and doesn't take up much space. It is a 10x10 size and the cost is $149.99.

Rick Eberst and Family "Traveling Collage" 24x24 $299.00




































This is a 24x24 canvas of the Eberst Family. This is the first collage I have done of a families vacation adventures and it was so fun! They have been all over, but these spots were some of the best ones. There is one in Athens, Kona, Kauai, and Isle of Capri. The 8x10 picture is of Rick and Laurie renewing their vows and it is such a beautiful picture...The numbers "143" are symbolic to them both because in nautical terms, it means I love you, and they say that to each other every day, 143...I just love that!
