You can use a lot of items as utensils and you don’t even need to be an artist to do it. Just try some of these cool projects and with all the directions, it can even turn into a family project! Some people experiment with leaves #12, corn, lemons – that they dip into paint. Well, who said an old teddy bear isn’t cut for the job?

Use simple letters and choose your favorite font over a mix of colors and you’ve got yourself an inspiring wall art to look at every day. It will really make that part of your house truly special!

17. Use Your Hands

The best way to really personalize a space is to use your hands as a décor. Dip your hands into paint and press it on the canvas or on some thick paper. Get your entire family to join the fun experiment. These two projects above feature the hands of a family and their toddlers.

16. Have Fun!

It’s essential that you have fun while you work so that you transform that work of art into a memory you will always remember. These projects were specially picked not to just make your house look amazing, but to also make you remember how great and fun it was working on them with your significant other, friends, or family!

Cut paper stripes and glue them to a thick piece of paper cut into the form of your favorite animal. Get crazy! It’s also a great project for kids, and you end up making your walls look so exciting.

14. Nursery Art

If you have a smaller house and your walls are painted white to make the space bigger, there is nothing wrong about adding a pop of color to add to a kid’s room, for example! If you’re expecting to add a baby to the family and want to decorate the baby nursery, then this is the best idea…

13. Baby Shower Gifts

Use wood block squares, paint them in bold, bright colors and print out baby animals or whatever you want. Cut them and glue on top. It’s that easy!

And they can also be used as baby shower gifts with many animals and colors for the mommy-to-be, especially when you don’t know the baby’s gender yet.

12. Nature In Your House

Bring nature to your house with this super easy wall art. Make several paintings and use different colors, adding that gold effect to have those colors pop out. The warmth of the gold also complements the colors. You can always switch for a can of spray in silver, copper or white shade and use other materials like a doily.

11. Canvas Cut Out

Who said the canvas has to stay in one piece? You can use it to make a three-dimensional wall art but cutting it in the shape that you want – it’s best you draw on its back to cut it quickly and with no complication. It looks professional and so luxurious! You can also try other colors or spray paint it with a metallic color.

The Chevron design is an all-time favorite. It also symbolizes waves in Egyptian mythology, and what better way to celebrate the sea and the Egyptian gold jewelry with a painting done in turquoise and gold glitter? We like a little glitter and the gold look…

It’s also a focal point for the living room, but it can also be great for the bathroom. All you need to do is stick some block letters to a canvas and start painting!

6. Metallic Paint

See? We told you turquoise and gold make for exquisite wall art! Get an old canvas and add different colors, and some metallic paint, spreading them around. Use taping and paint over that tape with metallic paint. Then you peel the tape off and voila! It’s ready to hang up!

5. A Different Kind of Painting

We told you: when you don’t have a canvas, use the entire wall! This project looks amazing in the kitchen! Dip spoons in paint and arrange them any way you want them to create a unique look in your kitchen or dining room. Have you ever seen such a thing?
