Spray painting canvases is extremely easy. To make cool designs and create contrasting colors all you need is: -Spray Paint of your choice -Painter's Tape -String or Yarn
To create something like the painting to the right, all you have to do is spray paint the canvas a solid color (I used gold), wait for the paint to dry, wrap yarn or string around the canvas and tap the ends to the back, then spray paint the canvas in an ombre pattern. Once the paint is dry, take off the yarn or string.
These were made using painter's tape, but the one in the middle was made by my mother and she did some different, crazy stuff. The point of posting that is to show that you can be creative with it. I encourage you to create your own designs and think of your own craziness to paint.
One of my favorite things to do with perler beads is to frame my best patterns or glue them to a painted canvas! It is very fun and it is a great way to decorate your bedroom walls.
