canvas guest book with a twist

July 30, 2009

As a twist on the fantastic idea that I saw on bridal cheek, we used the paint-by-numbers canvas idea at a surprise 30th birthday party this weekend. Instead of an floral outline on the canvas, we just blocked off squares and rectangles, provided a palette of reds, blues and brown, and let guests find their inner Picassa. The best part was that the birthday girl went home with a piece of art for her home created with care for her 30th birthday.

DIY instructions: 1. Pick up a canvas at an art supply store 2. Block off squares and rectangles using a pencil 3. Supply your guests with paint and brushes. Super simple, eh?

Happy painting!
