My post last week about my craft roomreminded me that I hadn't posted any craft ideas lately. Bug and I haven't done anything interesting lately, so I thought I'd share and old one.
I like to watch Trading Spaces and other shows like it and have seen them create their own artwork to display. I can do that! Or rather, my son can. I picked up a 2 pack of canvases at Michael's for about $6 (I used a 40% off coupon) and the paints I already had.
I chose the colors that I wanted him to use (and I painted the background on one of them, just so they wouldn't both be white) and let him go. So he got to paint (a rare thing in this house) and I got some very unique and inexpensive artwork to display.
I plan on getting some more canvases and doing them myself. I'm no artist, but I can do stripes or geometric shapes. And it always seems to look pretty cool on those decorating shows.
