T.P. art

In my blog readings, I came across a blog called: Just a Girl. Then I saw this awesome DIY art piece she made....with toilet paper rolls! Awesome and cheap! Just what I need with my budget :) So this weekend, I finally had enough rolls saved up to make my own version.
I painted the outsides a creamy white and the insides got a coat of a metallic silver. Both are acryllic paints that my older sister passed on to me. I was happy to have a chance to use them! Plus they were free so it helps with the low cost of this project!
Here they are all hot-glued together and ready to be placed on my canvas.
I painted my canvas yellow to add a pop of color to our living room where this will get eventually get hung.
I also got this 20x24 inch canvas for a deal! Apparently there was something wrong with it, so it had a "As Is" tag on it with a price of $6.25- marked down from $24.99! I love a good bargain!
I played around with the design for a little while before settling on this as the final one.
Now I just need to get my hammer and nails out and get it hung up in our living room!
