Create a Stylish Haven for Your Teen with Canvas Wall Art and Mirrors
Decorating a teenager's bedroom can be fun and interesting. When decorating her bedroom, keep the mainstays, such as the walls and furniture simple. Bring color, patterns and textures into her room with easy-to-create artwork and canvas wall art and mirrors.
Animal Prints
Create a bold statement in your teenager's room by creating animal-print artwork. Simply, select paper or wallpaper that features an animal print and some picture frames. Cut the paper to fit the frame and place it inside the frame. For a balanced look, take several similar frames, use the same print in each frame and hang them side by side in a horizontal line along a wall. For a funky display, use frames in a range of different colors and sizes and insert different prints in each frame, such as zebra stripes, leopard spots and tiger stripes.
Splatter Paint Canvas Wall Art
Create a unique, fun and easy-to-make canvas wall art with splatter painting. To make this canvas wall art, choose a 12-inch artist canvas. Lay the canvas on the floor. Dip a paintbrush in the paint color of your teenager's choice and flick it, so that the paint splatters along the canvas. For a monochromatic canvas wall art, choose one color and splatter it several times across the canvas or paper. Use several different colors to create a more vibrant piece of art.
Geometric Prints
Art that features geometric prints is easy to make and can give your teenager's bedroom a modern look. Use different colors to paint several sizes of circles, paint a large circle first, followed by a medium-sized circle and a smaller circle. Another idea is to paint rows of squares that are of the same size and color until the entire canvas or paper is covered.
Decorated Mirrors
Create handmade, decorative mirrors for teens with their particular interests and style preferences in mind. You can make functional wall art using any mirrored surface and an assortment of embellishments and craft techniques. To make customized photo mirrors for your teen, use copies of her favorite photos of family, friends and pets. Attach them to the mirrors with double-sided tape or decoupage glue. Place the shapes around the perimeter of the mirror, overlapping them as necessary. Leave enough space in the center of the mirror to make it a functional decor accessory.
Different kinds of artwork are easy to make and will accentuate the style of your teen's room
