DIY ART: 6 SIMPLE ART IDEAS (UNDER $20) THAT YOU’LL ACTUALLY WANT TO HANG IN YOUR HOME

DIY art is literally one of my absolute favorite things to share here (and make). And today, I’m sharing six easy art ideas you can create at home that you’ll actually want to hang.

But the best part about all of this art is that every wall art idea here takes less than an hour to make AND each one costs less than $20!

I always keep leftover canvas and other fabric scraps from projects to reuse for the next one. So, if you already have the canvas (or fabric) scraps for this one and some glue OR no-sew tape and an iron, you’re all set.

Canvas Scraps Collage

This is an under 5 minute DIY art idea! If you buy the book Abode, and take the book jacket off and flip it over, you have a piece of art that you can frame! No creating required. And it’s such a cool piece to have framed.

Hidden Gem Book Jacket Art

This DIY art idea feel pretty self explanatory. Just grab a paint brush, some paint, and a big piece of paper. They have large size colorful art paper, like the pink one I used, at tons of art supply stores…and some craft stores too.

Super Duper Paint on Paper

Want to make something a little outside of the typical 2D box when it comes to art? Try making a tiny weaving – you can use my DIY weaving loom (the small lap weaving loom version) to make it.

Mini Mounted Weaving

This next idea also involves canvas. I like canvas for this better than paper because it creates more texture and overall is a more unique look when it’s finished.

Doodle with Oil Pastels

The one I framed up is a block printed napkin from Kesslyr Dean and I love the mustard color and the simple shapes.
