Make your own arrow art

13 May 2021

You’re sure to hit the mark with this crafty arrow wall décor. DIY has never been easier; all you need is some popsicle sticks and Resene testpots to smarten up your bedroom wall.

You will need:

• Resene testpots in your choice of colours – Nikki used Resene Cod Grey, Resene Alabaster and Resene FX Metallic Solid Gold
• Testpot brush
• Popsicle sticks
• Superglue
• Ruler

Step 1: Gather your materials.

Step 2: Place the popsicle sticks with some overlapping each other and work out the pattern you would like.

Step 3: Once you have the pattern worked out, paint the popsicle sticks using your choice of Resene testpots. Nikki used Resene Cod Grey, Resene Alabaster and Resene FX Metallic Solid Gold.

Step 4: Once the popsicle sticks are dry, use superglue to stick the pieces together and form an arrow.

Step 5: Once the adhesive is completely dry, hang your arrow on the wall using Blu Tack or small nails and enjoy.
