DIY Art | Savvy's Room

This was such a fun project for me! I was in need of some new (and large scale) art for Savvy's room. I didn't want to break the bank (again, I like changing things up quite a bit so no one item can ever be too valuable) but wanted something that was unique, stylish and special. After consulting my trusty Pinterest boards and hitting up Michaels, I decided to try my hand at painting. (After-all, the canvas was on sale for over 50% off.) I already knew the look I wanted to go for as well as the color scheme, so getting started was fairly simple.

First I took a roll of washi tape and sectioned off the canvas. This took a couple of tries to get the spacing right. From there I started with one color and did a spot (sometimes two) in each row and column. I made sure to space them out randomly and far apart from one another in this single color. I repeated this step with each color until each square of my washi tape grid was full. I tried to create texture and white space with each circle I painted. More paint here, less there...

 I'm extremely pleased with the end result especially considering the whole project cost just under twenty dollars. (NOTE: these colors are translating poorly on camera, in real life it matches her scheme perfectly.)
