For this DIY project, you can add a pop of color to your desk or book shelf with these spray-painted flowers. If you feel like giving a gift or thank-you note to a friend, this project makes a really lovely sentiment.
To make these elegant spray-painted flowers, you will need neon acrylic paint, small pieces of felt, scissors and glue, cardstock and a paint brush.
Once you have a collection of flowers you want to paint, arrange them on a flat surface and add an accent of color wherever you feel necessary. Get creative. Paint entire stems of some and just the petals of others. When the paint dries, glue the freshly painted flowers to the felt or paper and display accordingly.
