couch: DIY project round-up

I want to get crafty this weekend! Here is a round-up of some projects that look fun – hope you have a great weekend!
- An alternative to new wood floors – brown craft paper! View the tutorial here. Renters could do this on plywood and lay it down on their ugly linoleum!
- A heart mobile just in time for Valentine’s day! Cut the hearts and sew them together!
- Maybe a bright garland to add all this color everyone is talking about…
- Cover a canvas with painter’s tape in your favorite pattern (herringbone, chevron, stripes), paint a canvas with all your favorite colors, mixed together. Remove the tape, you have some abstract-ish “art”! I am going to try this on some embarrassing canvases in my closet! Here’s the photo.
- Give a table (or anything for that matter) a facelift with some gold spraypaint. I think the next “put a bird on it” is becoming “dip it in gold” but whatever, I don’t care.
- I love the colored streaks the cool girls are putting in their long, beachy waves. Here’s a tutorial for temporary color – using pastel chalks! I don’t know if I have the skills for this, all of the chalk would probably just end up on my face instead of my hair…
