Fluffy Love...easy WALL ART DIY


This is almost the simplest wall art ever except this!!  I used crepe paper (cut into approximate 4x4 squares) & small cocktail napkins (I just cut along the natural fold lines).  I was originally going to use tissue paper but couldn't find the colors I wanted at the price I wanted (like super cheap :)  




Grab some
Crepe paper
Napkins
Glue
Foam board (from $Dollar Store)
Pencil

Sketch your design, I chose a heart this time but can't wait to try other fun shapes; and get to gluing your cut out squares.  You'll be done in no time!  Just grab some glue & a pencil from the kids school supplies and tuck your pencil - eraser side into your paper square for a quick easy application.  

Umm, I did try double-sided tape, finished by nightfall come morning time practically all my little squares fell off! :(  So don't try that!! I don't know if it was because the crepe paper was too heavy or what but it was a big time bummer!!

Good ole Elmer's Glue is holding up, I think it turned out pretty good, actually I Love the way it turned out, I can't wait to make more fluffy paper art :)



Hey, speaking of love, I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it - if you would follow me on my blog & instagram :)
