DIY paintings: 100 interior ideas

Hand-made paintings perfectly complement any design of living space. Indeed, who can feel and emphasize the mood of the house better than its owners? Executed in a variety of techniques, such details will make even a standard design special, transform a simple kitchen or lounge, inspire bright emotions and bring comfort.

Does your room have a lone chair in a rich lemon color? Support the emphasis with a concise picture written by yourself!

We observe the triumph of abstractionism, and in most galleries we find canvases, as if coming out from under the brush of either a child or a dolphin. So if the difference is not significant, why not try to write your own creation? Drawing classes bring incredible pleasure, and the result simply can not be bad or wrong!

A simple and elegant option is a gradient image. You will not need instructions to play it. Allocate a few minutes of your time, stock up with a roller or brush, two colors (main and white) - a few movements, and a bright accessory is ready.

Draw broken horizontal stripes, they will resemble visualized sound waves or complex graphics, and therefore it will always be interesting to inspect them. Golden foil or paint will help dilute the severity of the lines. You can leave empty places, and smears should be done in one motion. It is best to combine gold with a white background, as well as contrasting coarse materials - concrete or brick.

In general, images can be any. It is not necessary to draw something intricate - even children's blots, circles and triangles, rhombuses and waves when choosing the right colors will become real poetry.

Natural materials are at the peak of popularity. Small wood pictures or huge panels will complete the current modern interiors in the style of loft, modern, eco, country, rustic.

As a basis, use thin dried boards made of natural wood or lightweight panels, for example, from plywood. Decorate the bars with stencils, garlands, crystals, paint or give them a bizarre configuration.

A panel of wood cuts will help bring the atmosphere of fresh forest to your home. Sketch a sketch and get to work. It is best to select elements of different textures and sizes - this will add a natural composition. Grind the sides that will be adjacent to the base and fix the bars, and leave the front parts in relief. Fix the finished result with glue and varnish for brightness and better preservation.

Carnations and threads - at first glance, not the most romantic and cute objects, but with their help you can make very nice crafts. The composition of this non-standard tandem will become the original decor of the room. You are unlikely to find such a picture in anyone else - you made it yourself.

Consider creating a product with the inscription "OK." Of the basic materials for its manufacture you will need: lightweight wooden board or plywood 50x50 cm; White paint; roller or brush; sketch; small cloves; threads for knitting or embroidery in different shades close to each other; duct tape; pencil.

If the wood background is uneven, sand it with sandpaper. Apply long strokes twice. You can vary the sketch yourself or find it on the Internet and print it, group the sheets with ribbon. Cut the edges with scissors. Place the stencil on a dried board and fix it with adhesive tape.Drive carnations into places with point marks, starting from the top edge. An important point - they should be approximately at the same level of height and create parallel straight lines. Carefully remove the template and the remaining pieces of paper.

It's time to start weaving. To understand where to start and where to lead the thread, refer to the sketch. The silhouette of the letters “tie” with black thread. Wrap the first clove twice and make a knot, and cut off its tip. Each thread will be located in the middle of the nails. Pull the thread and continue to outline the image, make one revolution around each nail.

When you have finished the letters, take the thread away from the last nail and wrap the other nails around it. The point is that there is no clear order of nails here, choose the paths of the thread randomly. When one color comes to an end, take another, but similar in tone shade. Finally, fill the void inside the letter “O” and fix the finished composition on the wall.

Many beautiful wallpapers with intricate ornaments are so expensive that it is easier to glue banknotes instead. We won’t go so far, but using wallpaper as a dot decoration is a perfectly rational compromise. Moreover, beautiful patterns in large numbers can ripple, we will carefully circumvent these potential troubles.

So, the patterned wallpaper itself is a finished canvas, so it’s enough to place them inside the spectacular frames. It is good if the pattern and individual colors will overlap with other interior details. Hunt for sales of the remains of wallpaper, anyway one roll will be enough. Moreover, you can purchase several types of this material to create modular compositions.

Ordinary buttons are a very convenient material for creativity. With their help, original crafts are created by sewing or attaching with glue. This technology is universal and suitable for creating unusual paintings.

You can “fit out” the silhouette of a letter, tree, butterfly, elephant, owl, or any other object that you come up with. In the sewing apparel store, select the buttons in different configurations and colors, and put them on the template at home and fix them on a prepared basis. Cheerful works will be a wonderful and somewhat ironic addition to the design of the kitchen, living room or children's room.

Another extremely easy idea for an express picture is to take an interesting scarf or piece of fabric with a suitable pattern and cover it with a wood board. Textiles are fastened with flat buttons or small studs.

From dense fabrics such as flannel or felt, you can cut individual intricate elements. Combine different textures, apply thematic details - lace and braid, buttons.

Needlework will look best in a kitchen or a nursery, as well as in country-style rooms, which are characterized by cozy simplicity. For the bedroom, calm motives are suitable.

Using stencils, you can easily apply images to any surface. As a basis, thick cardboard or plywood is best suited. In order for the background to look harmonious, to fill it, you need to apply a shade that contrasts differently from the color of the picture. Clear gold or silver patterns on a white background look very original.

Compositions applied with paint can be plain and multi-colored. As a stencil, you can take flowers and leaves, a lace napkin. Also use sticky stencils, they will add volume to your picture.

Prepare the base and, if desired, fill the background with paint. After that, holding the stencil, carefully paint over empty areas.

When the paint is dry, remove the pattern or move it and apply the next pattern using this or another pattern.

The most realistic picture is, of course, a photograph. To make the photos look intricate, place them in a spacious passe-partout and hang them in the manner of an exhibition in a fashion gallery. Such an installation will be a great addition to a long hallway.

Another way to hang pictures is to create a structure from mounts and cords. Instead of frames, use stationery clips.

You are probably aware that photographs can be huge. Contact your nearest printing house or photo shop and print photos of your child, the sea coast, rare black-and-white pictures or a photo of an ordinary light bulb, in shades of gray it will look very stylish.

At the peak of popularity are ironic and motivating quotes. Print several of your favorite sayings at once with the actual extended font and place them in concise contrasting frames “for solidity”. Framing will add extra meaning to every word.

In modern design, eco-style takes one of the first positions in demand. The still-life is performed both from living and from dried plants. Revive the interior will help systems of vertical landscaping, panels of succulents and stabilized moss.

To dry the leaves and flowers, use an iron, press or oven. In summer, you can completely dry the details in the open air. If you want to get a voluminous herbarium, use express drying, so the vegetation will retain its natural shape. Place the most impressive exhibits one at a time. Iron the sheets between the layers of non-woven fabric and clamp between the two glasses. The decor will look like it is hanging in the air. The beauty of the herbarium is that it is easy to make it yourself and update it over time.

By the way, real masterpieces can be laid out from dry and fresh objects of botany research. They will not always be able to be fixed so that they look as grandiose as you intended, and therefore it is best to try to make something simpler or photograph the application and print. For inspiration, we picked up several pictures of the works of the creative family tandem Vicky and Brook, which lay unusually beautiful floral portraits from flowers and stems - by the way, without a drop of glue, and therefore they only record their work on cameras for calendars and other souvenir products.

Human imagination is endless, and hand-made masters do not cease to amaze. In our selection you will find even more inspirational ideas and examples of paintings for the interior. Enjoy watching!
