Dilly’s Craft Corner
Interiors Expert Dilly Orme says, “Why not try your hand at some simple, striking artwork!”
Artwork is such a personal choice, which can really impact on your décor and become a real focal point of the room. It can often be a challenge finding the right thing, so why not take it into your own hands, even if you don’t think you are a natural artist? Keep it simple like the design shown here. Invest in a large blank canvas, try CANVAS-STORE.CO.UK for a good selection of sizes. Paint your lighter base coat first, then paint a darker coat on top. As you grow more confident try different designs, picking out the colours in your scheme. Try using graphic stencils – NICOLETTETABRAM.CO.UK has a good range – or do simple line paintings using a fine brush.
