West Elm Hack// B +W Abstract Art
For under $15!!! This is how I did it and kept the costs low. I love the look of the West Elm Black and White Abstract Art I just don't have the $$$ right now. When you can't buy it, DIY it!!
DIY your own Black + White Abstract Art just like the West Elm version for under $15!!
You will need a 4x5 canvas drop cloth that you can get at any home improvement store for cheap, 12 ft. of lumbar to build the frame just a couple bucks, wood screws and a drill, staple gun and staples.
I suggest cutting some extra wood pieces to support the corners and a center cut to make sure your frame is level and sturdy.
My kids and I painted together just using some leftover black and white craft and art paint. We just used basic craft brushes.I suggest doing your black strokes first, then follow with white.
Not bad!!
This is going to be part of our gallery wall and I just love it. Fun to do with the kids.
Up close
I think my kids have some talent :)

Very nice! I have some (small) canvases in my girls' room that they scribbled all over with crayons as toddlers. Not as dramatic as yours, but really sweet wall decor for their room.

You guys need to start a business. This is amazing. People will pay. Just look at Etsy to see how much art like this is going for.
