Canvas Wall Hanging

Philippians 4:6


This is a very simple but cute way to display sayings on canvases. I saw it at this site and was inspired:

I recently purchased a bulk of 8x10 in canvases on sale at my local craft store, on sale for about $1.50 each. I also found Acrylic paint in the color "Neon Pink" for $0.59. these two were the only real cost of this project.











I painted the pink paint on with a large brush and since it dries fast as it soaks into the canvas material, it won't apply as a solid color, hence the color texture shown.













Next, I used a pencil and a straight edge or a ruler to draw 5 different lengths of lines from almost the top to the bottom. This is the starter for the stems of the flowers.

Then I also drew with the pencil the dandelion heads and daisy heads.

Next I wrote out in pencil the verse i had chosen to use.
Light pencil lines make it easy to find where to draw without having to free-hand draw or write.








Using a thin-line black permanent marker, outline the pencil lines on the verse and the flowers.











...and voila! You now have a simple to make reminder for you or someone you care about, that God gives us reason to put our worrying aside.












Different verses would be fitting with this same border and color.
Also, for further inspiration I would recommend the site that inspired this project: www.etsy.com
