Any way, now that my kitchen is done I am going to keep the coffee theme going in there. Since I changed the colors though I need some new decorations. Since I would prefer to make something cool, then go buy something really expensive I came up with this idea!
What you will need:
Canvas
Old Floor Tiles(mine were peel n stick vinyl so they were not too heavy)
coffee filters
Hot glue gun/glue
First, on my canvas I laid out all the scraps of tile that I had left from putting the flooring in. I didn't really want any of them to go to waste, and they made a nice background and obviously matched the kitchen.
Next, I went to town scrunching up all the coffee filters, so they looked pretty. I found for this project it worked better if I cut them in half since I was going to be writting out of them. The full coffee filters were a bit too big.
Then, I set to work spelling out coffee on the tile with the hot glue gun(I only did one letter or half a letter at a time so it wouldn't dry), then I placed the coffee filters on it.
On the bottom underneath the word coffee I put a coffee cup. I centered it under the "f" so that it looked like the fs were more of the steam coming out of the cup of coffee.
Now since I already had the tile(as it was scraps), I already had the canvas(it came in a two pack and I had already used the other one for a different project), the only thing I needed to buy were coffee filters(since my coffee pot has a reusable one). Which means I made this project for a total of 1.50-can't beat that in my book and I really like the way it turned out. This will look wonderful above my arch in the kitchen!
