More Spring Crafts



I made these wall hangings by using a dry brush technique (putting a small amount of paint on your dry brush, then getting almost all of that paint off before painting your surface) on a piece of old cardboard. The creases in the cardboard make the board look old and worn, and the dry brush technique makes the cardboard look like a distressed piece of wood. I then put a variety of things in the center of my boards, and added stickers to spell Spring. I used wire coiled on the top for one hanger, and just used ribbon in the other three. You could glue a big flower in the center of one, real or dried. You could add anything springy that you have laying around your house! This is a simple "free" craft to make. Just use things lying around!
