About: Hello everyone, my name is Ashley. I am a mother of 2, I love to try my hand at crafting. I love natural living and repurposing anything. I am new here and I hope you like my entries.

This tutorial is a fun and easy gift that can add a pop of color to any child's room. I made this to hang in our learning room and to help gain awareness for Autism. There is a lot that people don't know about Autism and there is still a stigma attached to an Autism Diagnosis. I hope that for the sake of my child and all other children on the spectrum one day that will change and we can all understand their world a little better.

Step 1: Gather Your Materials

Materials

  • Canvas
  • Puzzle Pieces
  • Hot Glue
  • Painters Tape
  • Acrylic Paint

Step 1:

Start off with a plain canvas and tape off the areas you don't want painted.

Step 2: Paint

After taping I started painting. While paint is drying move on to step 3.

Step 3: Paint Puzzle Pieces

Paint your puzzle pieces the colors you want them to be then set aside for drying.

Step 4: Adding the Puzzle Pieces

When everything is done drying use a stencil ( I printed a letter W and cut it out to make a stencil).

Step 5: The Final Step

Use your hot glue gun to glue on the puzzle pieces, then pull away the paper and you're done. I hope you have enjoyed this quick and easy gift idea. Thank you.
