Textured wall art

Create a wabi-sabi inspired art piece using simple materials.

You will need:

A large piece of polystyrene

Sticky back plastic

Tissue paper

PVA glue

Paint - white and beige for a faux limewash effect

Method:

Select your chosen polystyrene piece. (I got mine from a delivery package. Most DIY stores will sell pieces too!)
Attach a layer of sticky back plastic to the polystyrene (any basic sticky-back plastic will do). This allow for a better effect when the tissue paper is applied.
Smooth on PV glue and build layers of tissue paper to your desired texture.
Allow to dry.
Create a faux limewash effect by bending your chosen colour paints.
When dry, attach hooks to the back and style on your wall.

Allow plenty of drying time.
