No canvas? No problem!!!
Are you in the mood to create something artistically wonderful but don't have a canvas on hand? Maybe you aren't familiar with the different types of canvases or can't afford the often-steep prices. Perhaps you don't have much wall space to hang a larger painting but still desperately need to release your creativity...Well, we're here to help! We want to offer some canvas-free creativity ideas for you to utilize. From wooden signs to glassware, we've got some thoughts on what you can paint!
Check out this HUGE list of ideas for glass paint!!! (*sold in most craft stores, along-side the acrylic paints- typically labeled, "Enamel paint").
