Simple wall art

This weekend I put together a rather large wall hanging for a rather large blank space in our house. Such a simple but effective idea using a few pieces of timber offcuts, fabric and a staple gun. First of all, I cut the lengths to the desired size and screwed it together so it was braced.

Mrs found this fabric on a discount table for $8 a metre (usually $29.95 per metre) and purchased 1.3 metres of it allowing enough fabric to cover the frame.

Voila!

You can change the look of a room with a splash of pattern or color! 
Here is a cot panel we made into a piece of art for our daughters room. Mrs added some glitter fabric paint to make it extra special.

A great way to add some art work without needing too much time or money to any space in your home.
