Project

I started with this thrifted word art canvas I bought for $0.99.

I painted the canvas with a couple coats of white paint.

Next I applied the grey veining. I included all of the tips for doing this effectively HERE.

Then I added depth with brown and white paint using several techniques I've outlined HERE.

I absolutely love how it turned out and how easy and inexpensive it was!
