DIY Art

This weekend I decided that I wanted to make some art for a naked wall in my living room.  So, on Saturday morning, I got to painting.

This project took me all of an hour and I had everything already on hand.  I am totally happy with how it turned out!  Seriously, who doesn't just love an easy DIY projects that takes all of an afternoon and is made with stuff already in your cabinets?!  Oh, and it made a big impact in the room...which was my goal to begin with.  Brilliant!
I large piece of wood painted White.  Mine is about 40" x 30".
Chevron stripes in Grey, Black, and Gold. 
Simply paint and tape.  I used Acrylic paint that I already had at home.

Drill these into the back of the wood and then hang it up.

Another piece of DIY word art that is in my Family room can be found {here}. Since this picture was taken, I have indeed changed around my family room...(it doesn't stay the same for long). I have issues.  Anyhoo,  Happy Monday everyone! Xo
