Budget Tip of the Day: Use Paint
Image via Real Simple
There is no need to hang anything on your walls if you go bold with your paint. DIY artwork doesn’t get much easier than this. Create a pattern of painted squares on your wall, or let a single square stand on it’s own. Use painter’s tape and a level to achieve an even square pattern. You can get quite creative using different colors, sizes and arrangements. If you want a variety of colors, but don’t want to fork out the money for that much paint, use paint samples. They are usually only two to five dollars per sample and come with more than enough paint for this project. Most of them come in a flat finish, but if you want something a bit more shiny, gently rub some wipe-on poly (available at any home improvement store) over each square before removing your tape.
