It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

Learn The Secret to DIY’ing This Beautiful Moon Mural

I love the idea of a wall mural but I am not good enough as a painter to ever attempt one.  That is, until now.

This beautiful, golden wall art is MUCH easier to create than you might think.  And the secret is an OVERHEAD PROJECTOR.

According to abeautifulmess.com:

One of my most treasured art tools is actually my overhead projector. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve used it for various different projects and purposes, but this type of project is where it really comes in handy. I printed the moon photo onto a transparency film sheet and projected it onto my wall to get the size and location right. I then outlined all the areas with my favorite gold craft paint and filled in all the solid spaces once the outline was complete. That’s all there is to it.

Wow!  Who knew?  This opens up all sorts of possibilities for wall art so I am personally very excited about this!

Have you ever attempted a mural?  How did it go?
