Inside: Create Your Own DIY Wood Wall Art

From DIY frames to hold photos of you and all your BFF’s to an inspiring piece that creates a conversation for you and all your guests, decorating your walls is such a fun way to show who you are and what you love. Us and our friend Kell from Simply Handmade were inspired to create a DIY wood wall art for every style, check it out!
What You Need to Make Your Own DIY Wood Wall Art
To make our colorful DIY wood wall art canvas pieces you will need:
- Wood Canvas (We used a wood canvas and flipped it over to create a framed look)
- Square Dowels
- Sand Paper
- Dowel Cutter/Saw
- Paint (We used two different shades of one color, a lighter and darker)
- Wood Glue
How To Make Our Fun Wall Art DIY
There are just a few easy steps you need to take to create this fun DIY wood wall art!
- First, you want to start by measuring and cutting your square dowels the sizes you will need.
- Make sure to sand all wood surfaces for a clean look. Also, don’t forget to wipe any remaining dust from the wood before you begin painting.
- Then I like to place my wood pieces onto my canvas to make sure I find a good layout I like before painting. (Helpful Tip: Take a quick photo of the layout you like, so when you go to glue them down you can refer back to your photo for their placement!)
- Next paint each dowel piece with your darker paint color.
- Then paint your wood canvas with your lighter paint color.
- Once those are dry, use wood glue to secure each piece to your canvas in the layout that you created before.
- Now let that dry!
If you want to hang your wood canvas, you can always attach a small wall hanger to the back!
