More Canvas Art!

Here is another of my latest projects. 

Not bad huh?  Simple yet makes a dramatic statement.

This is much like my subway art, in that it would be quicker with a Cricut, but here is the cricut free way to do it, as I have yet to invest in one.  :)

Not too hard, Just a bit time consuming.

Here is what you'll need - 

Contact paper

Stencil or a printout of the design you want to use

Sharpie

Scissors

Now, I didn't have a stencil so i just printed off some designs that I liked.

First cut them out, and then trace them onto the contact paper.

Next cut out shapes you traced on the contact paper.  

Peal and stick to your canvases.

Paint your canvases, let dry and then peal those bad boys right off!

Here is the final product.

I'm pretty happy with it.  Its bold and black and white, you all know that's the phase I'm apparently going through. 

Well, thanks for stopping by and having a look. . . Happy Creating!

Fabric Covered Canvas

I wish I was one of those people who is super talented with a paintbrush.  If Its a room that needs painted, I'm your girl. But if its a pretty design or picture that needs painted, Um, that's not for me!  

But C'est La Vie!

I am however, queen of the staple gun!

So pull out yours and lets get going on some of these beauties!

I L.O.V.E. them!

These really were as easy as cut, wrap, and staple!

This way you get the look of a nicely decorated canvas without the mess and hassle of painting!

Good to know that I don't need to be a world class artist to make something beautiful!

Painted Canvas

This was a first for me. . . Painting canvases. They do it all the time on HGTV and they make it look easy. Lets just say I spent more time trying to figure out what to paint than actually painting.

I started out with just some blank canvases, and a simple design. . . squares. Maybe in the future my talent for canvas painting will grow, but for now squares fits me perfectly.

I think it turned out ok for now. They can hang in the guest bedroom for a while. The good thing about canvases is that I can easily paint over them, or cover them at any time.

At least it was fun and I tried something new!
