Colorful Wall Art Made with Oly*Fun Fabric

Oly Fun Wall Art

I’m a big fan of bold, colorful wall art.  As a crafter, I also like to coordinate my wall decor with the theme of the room.  As I’m transitioning my son’s room from a nursery to a preschooler’s room, I’m keeping the color scheme but changing out the theme, and moving from a circus theme to a kaleidoscope of color.  I drew inspiration from the colors in the curtain presently in the room to make a fun piece of wall art.  I simplified the project by using Oly*Fun fabrics and a die cutting machine.  Here’s how you can make beautiful wall art in minutes:

Supplies for Colorful Wall Art:

  • Oly*Fun Fabric (I used Bubblegum, Kiwi, LemonDrop, Orchid, and Sky Blue)
  • Stretched Canvas
  • Die Cutting Machine and Die
  • Mod Podge

Instructions to make colorful wall art:

step 1
Step one:  Cut the fabric into rectangles to fit your die.
step 2
Step two:  Run the fabric and die through your die cutting machine to cut your shape.  What I love about using Oly*Fun in my die cutting machine is that the edges are clean and never fray!
step 3
Step three:  Arrange the shapes as desired on the canvas.
step 4
Step four:  Use Mod Podge to adhere the shapes to the canvas.  I lifted one shape, brushed on Mod Podge, and pressed the shape onto the canvas.
step 5
Step five:  Paint another layer of Mod Podge on Top.

Repeat until the canvas is covered, and set the project aside to dry.  I wrapped the excess over the edge of the canvas, but you could also just trim off the excess.  Once the project is dry, you’re ready to hang it up.  What a fun, easy way to make a bold, colorful statement in a room!
