Craft Corner

As most of you know I don't have a job, and thus I sit at home all day long and try to figure out things to do. I saw this project on Pinterest (my bff) and thought it looked easy enough that I could give it a go.

I made the green and grey one first, to match our bathroom.  I used spray paint and I guess I didn't press the tape down enough because it bleed under the tape A LOT.  I didn't like that, so I decided to improvise and paint the lines in with the light grey to cover what I didn't like.  It turned out alright, but I was convinced I was still going to 'get it right'.

Michael's had canvas packs half off so I decided to go again.  This time I used acrylic paint for the black and red one that matches our kitchen.  The black didn't bleed nearly as much, and what little bit did bleed I was able to clean up with a q-tip and water.  The lines aren't perfectly straight, but I think it turned out a lot better.

Which one do you like better?
