Unique Wall Art

Hello my Crafty Crafters!

This craft is so easy that I don't have too many pictures to share with you. This is also because the ultimate design is up to you!



I happen to be a pattern freak and I LOOOOVE to mix and match as many patterns as possible. You will see this with my fabric and paper choices.


Needed Supplies:

1. Canvas board or Card board

2. 1-2 yards of fabric or Fabric squares which can be found @ Michaels and JoAnn Fabrics. You need enough fabric to cover all canvas boards or card board pieces. 1 fabric square for each 12 X 16 canvas board should be enough.

3. Tape

4. Glue

5. Scissors

6. Picture hanging wire

7. Different colored paper and or patterned paper






Step 1. Tape fabric to back of canvas board or card board, making sure to pull fabric tight, not leavings any wrinkles on front.






Step 2. Make shapes out of chosen paper and glue them to the fabric. some of my own Design ideas are below. Note: Making 3D design that come off of board will add more visual interest to your unique wall art.

Step 3. After designs are glued to fabric and glue is dry apply wire to back of board with tape.
Step 4. Hang on wall and enjoy your Unique Wall Art!
Happy crafting!
