Junior J and I decorated a canvas as a Father's Day present for the hubby. It all started off with a 20 x 20 cm canvas, as well as an earnest little painter with his paints and a cotton bud:
I was really proud of him, since he sat there for the longest time trying to cover the entire canvas with paint (except for the section I covered with a piece of cardboard, which was where the photo was supposed to be placed). We also stuck on some yarn for texture. However, I made a mistake of giving the boy red paint at the end, which meant I ended up with this:
The red areas ended up looking more pinkish after the white paint went on...
And I stuck on loads of washi tape all over:
And tada! The final product for the Papa:
I am really inspired... and may do one like this sooner:)
ReplyDeleteso lovely! daddy must be delighted :)
ReplyDeleteLovely piece!!! So inspired to do with my kids.Did you use acryllic or just normal paint? What's a washi tape?
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone!
ReplyDeleteZehan: We just used normal poster paints from Ikea. Washi tape is basically a type of paper tape, you can find them in scrapbook stores or shops like NBC, its great for dressing up projects since they come in all sorts of patterns!
