A Wonderfully Woven Painting DIY

Make your own painting to decorate a blank space.  This DIY woven painting is so easy and you don’t need to be an experienced artist to make it.  I would make the framing easier by purchasing a canvas and using some Modge Podge to glue it down.  Thanks to The Palette Muse for the idea.

I might be a little biased, but I believe that every home should have at least some art and some books, not necessarily in that order.  If you find your home lacking in the art department (or the “funds-to-buy-art” department) I’ve got a project for you today that you can do yourself, with no experience, and very few supplies, to add a little color to a room.  This is a woven painting that I recently finished for my bedroom.

You’ll need:

A Wooden Frame (build yourself, or buy from your local hobby store)

2 Colors of Acrylic or Latex Paint (I used Valspar paint samples from Lowes)

2 Large sheets of heavy paper (at least 4 inches larger on each side than your frame)

Paintbrush

Staple Gun
