DIY 1 dollar wall art

May 18, 2013 by Angela

You’ll need:
* Recycled card stock or paper.
* One of the stamps from the $1 bin at Michael’s or other craft stores
* Washable markers or ink
* Clothespins for hanging your art!
I got both of these stamps on clearance for .50 each at Michael’s after Valentine’s Day. The typewriter said “be mine” which is easy to remove for year-round use if you use a pen instead of an inkpad. I call this the $1 DIY because I only bought the stamps. Most of us have washable pens and a little extra paper. This card stock is extra thick because it was the backing for a pack of stickers or supplies. I always save seemingly useless pieces like that– am I resourceful or just a hoarder? A fine line.
What’s your cheapest DIY for the home?

    ah, both of these stamps are so cute! I’m not-so-secretly hoping you end up in CA so we can craft together again/I can have access to all your adorable crafty things…;)

      That is one HUGE perk! Plus, new thrift shops to explore together!

    What a fun DIY project! And I do like the little typewriter. I actually remember using one of those at my first job. Even the insurance office I worked for didn’t have a computer yet at that time. How did we do it?

    This is such a great way to dress up a space. There are so many quirky stamps to choose from so the possibilities are endless! I like hanging my scarves and jewelry where I can see them. That kinda counts as ‘free’ art, right?
