Letter art is a very popular way to decorate these days. Inspirational sayings or quotes to live by are a common thing plastered on walls all over the world.
It’s really quite clever. Sharon from SharonBeMakinStuff puts letters she cuts out over different scrapbook paper.
Then she puts this on a canvas, paints over the whole canvas (and scrapbook paper) and peels the letters off, revealing the scrapbook paper design showing through underneath when the letters are removed.
I was so intrigued by this DIY project that I just had to do this after watching what she did in her tutorial…it’s brilliant!
I have a lot of neutral colors in my living room and thought this would be a perfect statement for my room, giving it a clean look to go with my contemporary designs in my decor.
I was right and it looks really awesome hanging in a grouping I did in there!
This is a great rainy day project. I was so proud of myself when I finished this!
I think the most difficult part for me was getting the right size lettering for my canvas. I’m not very technically inclined since I’m so right brained, but I managed to wing it and pulled it off! Yay!
I’m gonna try to do a couple of these for gifts now that I’ve made one for my home. I know that my friends would love something like this.
These are great housewarming gifts too, so keep that in the back of your mind when you need one.
