Yarn Letters

Thanks to my empty box of Cheez-Its and some jute, I got myself a cool looking letter for home decor. 

Ingredients:

Any type of Box / Cardboard

Scissors

Yarn (any color)

Glue Gun/Double Sided Tape/Gorilla Glue (if desired)

Directions:

Trace the letter you want onto the box and cut out

(or for all you artsy people who need no help, just cut your letter out)

Wrap yarn around the letter until you can no longer see the box

Using hot glue gun/double sided tape/gorilla glue may be helpful

- - - WARNING - - -

 Some letters are way harder to wrap than others. Thank you hubby for giving me a last name that was hard to wrap with jute. Blah.

Easy Cheap Wall Art

We all know that wall art is super expensive at any store ... So why not get a little paint on your knuckles, save a lot of money, and have some pride behind your home decor.

Here is what you'll need

Canvas (as few or as many as you desire)

Painters Tape (thick or thin)

Acrylic Paint (whatever your flavor is)

Wall Hangers

How you'll do it

- Lay your canvas's right next to each other in the way you will want to hang them.

- Put down your painters tape in any design you desire across all your canvas. Make sure to push down on your painters tape to assure it is stuck to the canvas tightly.

(I did this with reckless abandon and it turned out awesome)

- Paint the different sections with your color choices. I used a dominate color (red) and two other colors as back splash to give a little umph.

- Let dry. You may need to put a few layers of paint on. I had to put 3 layers on some parts of it. Just let it dry, and then you will be able to distinguish whether it needs more paint or not.

- After paint has dried, peel off the tape. My paint kind of leaked under parts of the tape so I just went over the lines with white paint retouching spots with a super steady hand. 

- Hammer on wall hangers and hang wherever you heart desires.
