How to create a geometric backdrop
Creating a backdrop from a canvas is such a fun and quick project. I bought a canvas drop clothes at Lowes and all the other supplies I already had on hand.
I started by taping off my design, a diamond pattern with painter’s tape – as well as taping off the edges.
I then started with mint green acrylic paint to start filling in the pattern.
Next I added coral and a soft creamy blue color.
Each diamond took two coats of paint to get a good even coverage. Then before the paint was fully dry, I removed the tape.

This is such a fun, color but also budget friendly project if you are looking to make a back drop for a photo shoot, a birthday party or any other fun occasion.
I hung this up in our sun room. It goes with all the colors and patterns just perfectly.
