Want to make something with a different look, maybe metal, but don't want to get into welding, grinding, and all that grittiness? Take a look at some of these projects.
Probably the most popular on the web is metal decorative squares made from toilet paper tubes. Here's Suzy's story and the project.
Anna at her blog, Take the Side Street, shows how to make a distressed, rusty arrow
from plywood.
Emily at Newly Wifes (sic) shows how to put together a wall piece using washers (the kind that are used with screws).
If you want something metalish for your wall, but don't have the time to make it, here's a selection from Etsy. This work by Inspiring Art is outstanding.
And here's a Japanese artist, Takahiro Yede, doing some interesting work. Take a moment to read what he has to say about his work.
