I've seen so much wall art made out of paint chips on the internet recently and couldn't resist making my own to brighten up the guest room.

    Cut the coloured strips out.

  3. Small img 0701

    Cut them in half so they become squares.

    Cut a piece of blank paper to the size of your frame and start gluing down the squares in rows.

    Use your judgement and taste to decide which colours should go wear.
