Cute Painted Wall Art – Sibling Craftery’s Annual Crafting Weekend Part 4

It’s seems its been forever since I’ve logged in to blog.  I’ve been sick .  For those that may be curious – Kacie’s Kreatures sold out very quickly and she made the most profit in her class – so woohooooo!   She’s looking at other plushie patterns, so we may have to find some more room to put them!

Off to our fourth and final installment regarding the Annual Crafting Weekend.  We decided to make some simple little wall art. 

First we drew a picture (or letters in some cases) on paper.  Yes that’s my little penguin…. I like him, so I put a santa hat on him to make him Christmas-y

Then we transferred this over to the canvas.

Next it was time to get out the paint and get to it.  Yes – our fingers and hands had many colors all over them.  LOL  Nothing like getting a little messy in the name of Craftiness!

To finish them off, we took some pretty ribbon and hot glued the ends to the back of the canvas. Here’s some pics of the finished sets.

Not really anything fancy, more whimsy and fun I think.  We had a good time making them.  Renee’s “Joy” turned out better than mine I think.  Her dots were bigger and more uniform.  She did a kickbutt job on it!

Well that concludes the crafting weekend we had for Christmas presents.  It was alot of fun and I’m sure next Thanksgiving we’ll be having another one.  It’s a blessing to be able to spend time with your sister and then the added kicker to actually both enjoy doing the same thing.  We also saved ALOT of money by making hand made presents for our friends and family.  

 I think next I’m going to tackle some coffee holders I saw online and fabric coasters that are on the Martha Stewart website.  I’ll post pics when I’m done with both and link to the sites where I found the tutorials.  They look like a lot of fun.

Keep Kraftin’
