Since I’m celebrating Birthday Week on the blog, I thought it would be fun to share a fun DIY for some dog inspired artwork! You’ll love this fun tutorial to add a little extra woof to your own home!
String Art isn’t a new concept, all you have to do is search pinterest and tons of examples will pop up. After seeing lots of fun renditions on the web I thought it would be fun to create my own design, with man’s best friend in mind!
DIY Dog String Art
Supplies:
- String (I used Baker’s twine available at my shop)
- Hammer
- Small Brads
- Scrap of Wood
- Printed Text (I used “Woof” and you can download it HERE)
Step 1: Tape your printed type onto your block of wood. You can really use anything from shapes to various words and even logos.
Step 2: Nail your brads along the inner and outer edges of your text.
Step 3: Remove the paper.
Step 4: Tie your string to one of the nails and begin winding around them in every which direction. It helps if you outline each of the letters with string before filling them in.
Step 5: Continue this process for each of the letters until they are all filled in with string.
Congrats! You now have some fun dog-inspired string art!
I think it turned out pretty fantastic, and I can’t wait to come up with some more fun designs!
