Top  5  easy DIY  art projects from BluKatKraft Blog for adults and kids; just click on the photos for the tutorials:

1) DIY  Wall Art Tutorial  with string;  just glue on the string and paint for textured color  for your wall!  The yellow helped to brighten a dark corner! A little messy canvas art DIY but fun for kids too:

2) DIY CD wall art; Paint a canvas and glue old CDs! This too will add some life to a dark room! This is perfect for my office.  So easy, kids can do it! A great easy art upcycling project:

3) DIY Fabric Wall Art;  A quick and easy art project. Take an old frame & add fabric! I like this idea for a bathroom or kitchen; the glass protects the fabric from moisture or grime and it is easy to clean! I love this Damask fabric so much I used it in all three of my bathrooms!

    I know a woman who has three beautiful framed pieces of art – they go across the wall from light to dark – it looks so fancy, but really it is three pieces of wallpaper in the same design just different color schemes.

    My favorite is the plastic lid mosaic, but I love all of them. What a great way to get the exact color that you want in a room. I should do more of this.
