This weekend, when I had finished working on Friday and Saturday, I was left with nothing to do on Sunday. The last thing I wanted to do was watch some football game. After watching 14 episodes of House Hunters, I sent out on a hunt of my own.
I had been wanting to do an oversized painting to replace all the pictures I took down in my room. Not wanting to pay a lot of money for a large canvas, I set out to make my own. Wallet in hand, I was ready to tackle the project.
List of supplies:
- 2 yrds of white duck fabric
- 4-8'x1"x2"s
- A saw
- Staple gun and staples
- Scissors
- A set of paint brushes
- A bottle of black, white, red, yellow, and blue paint.
- A bottle of clear gloss.
The project was a lot more time consuming than i first thought it would be. I started at 6:00 on Sunday and didn't get done until 4:00 am Monday morning. It turned out a lot better then I thought, too. It's 6 ft wide and 5 1/2 ft tall and covers the majority of my wall.
New found hobby: Painting.
