It is very remarkable that today more and more owners prefer to decorate the interior of their homes with handmade paintings. And this is wonderful, because the variety of modern materials allows you to make needlework in all kinds of techniques. It's great that such handwritten creations can not only be hung on the walls of your home, but also presented as a gift to loved ones, colleagues or even children.
It is a mistake to think that a picture is something drawn on a sheet of paper. But in our modern time, it is a design element that is performed using completely unusual techniques.
Today you can find a large number of photos of homemade paintings on the Internet, they will help you decide on the direction and design of future products.
In the article we will describe some of the most interesting workshops on how to make beautiful and, most importantly, unique paintings. It is important that the following methods for the manufacture of such decorative elements will not require exorbitant amounts. And the list of necessary materials will not be prohibitive.
Paintings using beads
Surely you know a lot of materials from which you can make a beautiful picture. In addition to the painted products familiar to our eyes, there is a very remarkable technique using beads, which will sparkle with bright colors on the walls of your kitchen or bedroom.
Depending on the chosen theme, the product can be hung in the children's room or in the living room.
Note that this type of creativity requires considerable physical effort and time, but the result will exceed all your expectations and will certainly attract the views of households and guests.
For manufacturing, you will need not so many materials, half of which can always be found in any home:
- frame on a strong frame;
- finished picture (pre-printed);
- small beads (1-2 mm);
- Super glue;
- tooth stick.
The work process is simple. To get started, take the base (frame) of our future picture and glue the selected drawing on it. Next, carefully start gluing the beads, evenly distributing it on the canvas.
Do not allow the formation of empty "holes", for this you should use a toothpick, with which it is easier to get to the smallest corners of the picture.
Do this procedure separately, that is, visually divide the canvas into several elements and gradually fill these parts with beads. At the end of the work, let the painting dry completely by placing it in a vertical position.
If necessary, you can arrange a beaded masterpiece in a beautiful frame and then choose the most suitable place for the product.
Custom fabric paintings
Here is another interesting idea with which it is easy to make a picture. In this manufacturing method, you do not need to invent patterns, composition and select paints or pencils. Here only an idea is useful, how to choose the right fabric for the interior according to the color and shape.
It is not at all important that intricate plots are depicted on the fabric - the choice of elegant abstraction is quite suitable, which can be beaten on canvases of different sizes in order to create overall harmony.
Making such modular paintings at home is very simple, the main thing is to find the right fabrics and choose the perfect stretchers. One large pattern or drawing harmoniously looks, smoothly stretching over two or three paintings.
"Golden" paintings
Sounds expensive, doesn't it? But in the manufacture of paintings from gold, you will not need large expenses, but on the contrary, the necessary materials are easy to find in simple stores with building materials or household goods. And the execution technique itself is extremely simple, and even a schoolboy can handle it.
So, for work you will need:
- thick cardboard or a piece of unnecessary flat plywood;
- plain fabric;
- acrylic paint;
- glue in a stick;
- tassel;
- a branch from any nearby growing tree;
- aerosol with gold paint.
Work process
We glue our base with a cloth, carefully smoothing all the edges to avoid the appearance of bends or excess glue. After waiting for complete drying, we proceed to painting the fabric. To do this, very carefully apply an even layer of the paint you like and wait for it to dry. This stage can be avoided if you select a ready-made colored fabric for our composition in advance.
And now the most interesting thing is the creation of the golden branch. We take a twig and apply it to the dried canvas, and on top we apply spray paint in a plentiful even layer at a distance of 25-30 cm from the picture
Again we are waiting for drying. The drawing, made at home, is ready! If you want to add a twist, you can manually finish the missing elements: a bird, leaves or berries; you can glue rhinestones, beads for greater pomposity.
conclusions
As we found out, each of us can create a truly unique masterpiece in a single copy for the interior. Making paintings can be done not only by a mother on maternity leave or an art student. The creation of such canvases brings great together, so working on them is perfect for a young couple or a mother with a child.
On the Internet, it is easy to find many ways and instructions on how to make a picture. It is worth noting that sometimes the cost of materials and tools will cost a little more than a ready-made purchased product, but the result of our own work casts this drawback into the background.
Develop your imagination, creative skills and you will certainly be able to please your family and friends, because a handmade painting is an ideal housewarming gift, a boss or just a good friend for his birthday.

When this entire surface is filled, glue a large bead in the middle.
After the glue dries, you can frame the finished work and hang it in the bedroom or in the living room or present it to your loved one as a souvenir.

- Attach the butterfly to the beginning of the paper strip, fold the tape several times so that the insect has enough space on the square allotted to it. Outline the butterfly and cut along the contours. You will get not one, but several insects at once.
- In the same way, folding the paper sheets into a stack of squares, cut out the rest of the butterflies. Use dark pink, pink and light pink paper for this.
- With the help of double-sided tape, it is necessary to glue a sheet of polystyrene foam or polystyrene foam with whatman paper. Draw the outline of the future figure on it using a washable marker or chalk. Start gluing butterflies, filling this figure with them. When the work is completed, you can use it for its intended purpose.
Also, as in the photo shown, make the left outline of the drawing fuzzy, as if these are soaring butterflies that are gradually landing here.
Such works look especially beautiful in sunlight. You can not glue the foam, but tint it using a sponge and paint. Then glue the butterflies using double-sided tape.
You can create interior paintings by making cardboard frames with your own hands. And so that butterflies are visible on the canvas, draw their outlines on a sheet of cardboard and cut them out with a clerical knife. But the bottom of the base should be a more contrasting color so that the butterflies can be clearly seen.
You can leave them as white or paint them.
Do this fun activity with your kids. After all, they can also create original paintings with you. Each butterfly can be painted and glued to the canvas.
To make a wall panel, use heart-shaped figurines. For the following work, you don’t even need a frame, but you only need:
- double-sided cardboard;

- bar;
- dye;
- awl.
You should have several rows of hearts. Paint the block and tie the top pieces of the lines to it.
Now you can hang such a beautiful panel above the bed in the bedroom or on the wall in another room.
The creative impulse should not be held back by the absence of some material, such as paper. If you don't have it, use read newspapers. Cut out hearts from them and glue them to the paper base, make a frame for work.
If you still have ceiling tiles, this material will make wonderful interior paintings.
For these, you will need the remnants of colored paper. By adopting the template presented above or creating your own, you will make such a cheerful panel.
Pictures from buttons and corks
The following design decisions will be prompted by waste material. After all, wine corks are usually thrown away, and a lot of interesting things can be made from them. Here is a work created on the basis of this material.
For the first picture, you need to cut each cork in half, and if you have a lot of such material, then use whole elements. On the base, first apply the contour of the future masterpiece, and then fill it with blanks. If you want the picture to take on a rainbow tone, then pre-paint them.
To get such beautiful interior paintings, you can only use:
- bottle caps;
- rope;
- awl.
The next picture does not need a frame. You simply glue rows of corks on the main surface and you can attach a postcard here to congratulate your loved one.
If you have accumulated a lot of unnecessary buttons in your household, then you can also make interior paintings from them.
For the next one, they will use:
- buttons in shades of green and brown;
- glue;
- wooden board;
- pencil.
The following will also decorate the interior.
You can lay out the first letter of the name of a loved one with buttons, stick them on the base and hand the masterpiece to him. The motive can be very different. Make the outlines of an animal or an anchor out of buttons, such works will also certainly be appreciated.
You can confess your love in the most unexpected way. Paint the wooden surface, when it dries, glue the pink heart-shaped buttons here. Seeing such a sign of attention, your dear person will certainly be delighted.
Paintings in the interior can be very different. If you want to capture the dark time of the day, then pre-paint the background with brown paint. It doesn't have to be straight. Spread the paint with a sponge, then it will turn out so mysterious.
A black marker will help to highlight the contours of the branches and trunk, and a rainbow crown can be made from buttons of various colors.
If you prefer light colors, when you take the white base, draw the trunk here with a marker or brown pencil. You can let your creative imagination run wild and lay out this part of the tree using threads of this color. Glue the buttons, which will turn into multi-colored leaves.
Nature itself will help to draw interior pictures. Check out the following cool ways to create them.
Method for printing interior paintings
It is enough to dip a chamomile or other flower into the paint, and it will make a wonderful printing tool. You will lean the plant against a white sheet of paper and create original drawings.
Lemon can be used not only for its intended purpose. Dip half of this fruit in paint and print on paper.
Such artistic therapy will certainly cheer you up. You can use a wide variety of fruits and vegetables to create interior paintings. If you have an ear of corn, then cut off a fragment of the desired length from it, prick it on both sides on forks or other sharp objects and print to your health.
If fruits and vegetables are not available or you do not want to use them to create paintings, then you can take a balloon.
Pour paint into a bowl. And if you want the prints to be more interesting, then add paint and other shades here. Dip the ball into this mass, then lift it up and print patterns on a piece of paper that you yourself will come up with.
If you want to draw your favorite teddy bear, but you can't, then you can make a print. In order not to spoil the toy, take water-washable paint. Dip the bear here and attach it to a sheet of contrasting paper.
If there are no such consumables, then you can even use your own palm. Dip it in a bowl of paint and lean it against the paper base.
If you want to make a picture for memory, then invite all family members to do similar manipulations. In this case, the largest palm should be printed first, and then the next ones are arranged in decreasing order. Use different colors of ink so that each print is clearly visible.
It remains to see a few more ways that will allow you to create interior paintings. To make such masterpieces, you will need very little time.

You can create interior paintings so that you get a whole exhibition or make one or two. It all depends on the amount of free time and the availability of material.

Then you need to pull the resulting circles to the center from 4 sides, and you will get four-petal flowers. You can also quickly make a panel from packages of cupcakes and cookies.

Here are some interesting works of art you can create in minutes from the available material. If you want to see how others make interior paintings, then your desire will be fulfilled right now.
Indulge yourself in pleasure and see how you can make a picture, the surface of which will resemble marble:
Naturally developing as a form of art, they have safely survived to this day. At the same time, in a modern design interior today it is practically impossible to meet classical landscapes with still lifes: abstraction or a highly artistic photo took the place of picturesque classics. It is with abstraction and modernity that interior painting is mainly associated, the task of which is to create a certain psychological background of the room, the corresponding mood among those present, as a rule, an atmosphere of peace and tranquility, or vice versa - office activity and energy.
The shift towards abstraction, it must be admitted, brought painting much closer to an ordinary person who does not engage in fine art professionally or at a technically high level. Naturally, not everyone is given the opportunity to realistically reproduce reality on canvas, with abstract art, anyone has more opportunities to create their own mini-masterpieces. There are a variety of techniques, sometimes even a brush is not required: yes, you can come up with an original way of applying paints to the surface yourself, you just need to practice and gain experience. 
The main condition for the independent creation of a picturesque interior element can be called the courage of ideas and determination in their implementation: when creating an artistic abstraction, it is extremely important to free the mind from limiting stamps and, with a light heart, with a firm hand, make strokes, strokes, color stains on paper, giving free rein to inspiration and fantasy . If you succeed, then the creative process will turn into a kind of meditation, giving rest to your head and nervous system, distracting you from everyday worries and disturbing thoughts. 
The working surface for the picture can be, in principle, any flat surface, smooth or with a relief texture. It would be quite logical to take the first steps on ordinary thick paper of the required size, cardboard and plywood are also suitable, which can be pre-painted in the required light (or vice versa, dark) shade.
As working tools, any brushes are suitable, from art to painters of different widths, as well as pieces of foam rubber, an adjustable spray paint sprayer, a spray syringe, and the like, depending on the technique and the desired result. 
A variety of colors will suit: watercolor will create a more “airy” image that will harmoniously decorate, for example, a bedroom; acrylic, oil paints, gouache - everything that is at hand can serve to realize your ideas. Depending on the tool used and the application technique - strokes, stains, splashes, strokes, etc. - achieve the desired consistency (degree of density) of paints, mixing which, moreover, get interesting color shades. You can also remember about pastel crayons - also a very good tool for designing in calm, soft (pastel) colors. 
Do not forget about the additional possibilities of combining paints with other materials, such as multi-colored scraps of fabric, ribbons, leaves from trees, etc. This, however, is a slightly different genre, but it can help a lot in creating a truly original picture. Photographs located on a field painted by you and placed, for example, in a frame, also look good.
The design of the finished picture, according to modern ideas, can be presented in different styles:
- frameless style - the vast majority of interior paintings do not have a traditional frame;
- modular paintings - made up of three or more, less often - two elements of the same or several different sizes, located on the same or at different levels: today, a fairly common solution, it seems, has already experienced the peak of its popularity;
– a small picture, located in the central part of the field, framed by a narrow modern frame of much larger sizes – in this way they achieve focusing attention on the picture, highlighting it from the general interior;
- a narrow modern frame along the perimeter of the picture, with its thickness pushing the plane of the painting a few centimeters higher than the plane of the wall;
- other styles, up to bizarre combinations of classic and modern standards.
In conclusion, I would like to recall the well-known and repeatedly proven statement, according to which "practice is the basis of knowledge." It is only during the creative process that the most interesting ideas are born, and well-mastered visual techniques will help to bring them to life on canvas. Initially, you can get acquainted with the finished works on our website and other resources, but continue to get acquainted with the genre, take an interest in which paintings are most successfully sold at auctions, visit exhibitions, receiving information and new guidelines for creativity.
