Drop Paint Nursery Artwork

Babies are so expensive! Save some money on decorating the nursery with this easy and inexpensive original artwork. 

Supplies:

• White canvas 
• Paint (We used navy, teal and pink. We bought 8 oz. bottles and used about 2 oz. per canvas.)
• Drop cloth or plastic bags 
• String or yarn 
• Scissors
• Tape 
• Nail and hammer 
• Ladder or somewhere high to hang the paint (We used the inside part of the garage door.) 

Directions: 

1. Put down drop cloth or plastic bags and place canvas in the middle. 
2. Attach string directly above the canvas (to the ladder). Shake paint and attach bottle to string. We taped the bottle to the string. We did a few practice swings to make sure the canvas and bottle of paint were aligned. 
3. Hammer a nail into the bottom of the bottle to allow air into the bottle so paint will fall from bottle. 
4. Pull back paint bottle and let it drop to create a unique design! 
5. We layered our paintings and switched out colors a few times until we got the look we were happy with! 
6. Let dry and enjoy!
