This easy DIY space art is the perfect addition to add to the Industrial Space boy’s bedroom.
This is by far the easiest and most fun DIY ever. Me and my son had a ‘blast’ doing this art project together! We each made our own masterpieces so he has two now for his room. Because the mural in my son’s Industrial Space bedroom overtook one whole wall, I wanted to do something on the other walls that matched but not anything too crazy.

1. Paint two coats of navy blue paint on the canvas, drying in between coats.
2. Mix a few tablespoons of white paint with equal amounts of water (1:1 ratio) with a chip brush.
3. Wipe some of the white paint off on some paper towel then splatter the paint from the chip brush over the blue canvas. You can use your finger to brush against the brush to make splatters too. If you don’t brush paint off on the paper towel, you will get more blobs than tiny splatters on the canvas.
4. Allow to dry and hang on the wall!
I’m really happy with how this art project turned out and more importantly, so is my son!
I love taking old kitschy decor items and updating them to add some unique decor. I love finding unique stuff to decorate with. The not-so-rustic cabin is slowly coming along but decorating on a budget can be challenging at times. Why not breath some new life into some old kitschy decor stuff? And for the…

This weekend was my daughter’s 2nd birthday. I still can’t believe she’s 2. I know it’s such a cliché, but time goes by so fast!! Her party was a Vintage Equestrian theme. No she didn’t request ‘vintage equestrian’ but she loves animals and I’m sure I’ll only have a few years to be able to…
These Valentine’s Day wax seal cards are the perfect nostalgic gift for your Valentine this year. Originally published in 2018 but updated in 2026 I should have been born in a different era. An era when people sent letters to each other instead of emails and practiced their cursive writing. I love making wax seals…
How you can turn a French yogurt jar into a beautiful candle holder for your table setting. As you know, I was in France this year for Heather Bullard’s The Academy. Ah-mazing. I have taken back home with me one of Heather’s table ideas. It’s so simple, diverse and beautiful for any table setting. And…
I turned black frames into vintage gold frames with beautiful patina. Check out how! If you’ve been following along on my mini dining room transformation, you’ll remember that I removed the cabinet with my collectibles in it, that we installed the picture frame moulding, then we painted the inside of the frames and now the…

That is a very cute piece of art and i loved his room.
Hi Jamie!
That’s so fun! I also love to create things with kids, especially our son, Adam who is about to turn 13 next week. Not long ago, we got him some plain black Vans and he and I painted them with a galaxy theme. He gets compliments on them every time he wears them to school. I’d love to show them to you (how do I do that?). Also, where did you get those black brackets for your son’s shelves?
