As my active boys get older, it is getting more difficult to get them to sit still long enough to do something creative. However, the project I am sharing today is perfect for my hockey-loving sons. Check out this wonderful (and simple) DIY hockey canvas that kids can paint using their favorite team colours and dollar store supplies. It makes fantastic custom artwork for their rooms too!
To make the jersey artwork, start by painting a canvas a solid colour, and let it dry completely.
Then, add light coloured writing.
Finish by adding details/highlights in a darker colour.
I love that this project can be done inexpensively in any colours that the child chooses. Check out the fantastic job my hockey-loving boys did on paintings for their rooms.
This is a great project to do on a rainy or snowy afternoon at home, and it would also be fun at an end-of-season team party or hockey-themed birthday party.
It would work for other sports too. The possibilities are endless! Do you have a sports fan that would love to make some artwork replicating their favorite jersey? ♥ Gina (aka East Coast Mommy)
