These personalized painted speakers are a perfect Christmas do-it-yourself gift idea for any musical enthusiast. The concept is relatively simple, with an MP3 player remotely controlling portable speakers which are mounted inside a canvas painting.
The painting pictured here, was a fitting gift for a saxophone enthusiast, from a friend who completed this project for under $25.
Needless to say, the image could be customized with any theme, (i.e., music, sport, or pop culture, wine, etc.)
