How to Create Wall Art With Electrical Tape
Intro: How to Create Wall Art With Electrical Tape
Add a Mondrian vibe to a wall using some electrical tape and a few pieces of coloured acetate. It's pretty self explanetory but for more detailed insructions go here.
STEP 1: Pick a Wall
Choose the space you want to decorate.
STEP 2: Gather Your Materials
I used:
Electrical tape
Coloured acetate sheets
A spirit level
A craft knife
Scissors
A pencil

STEP 3: Layout Your 'Frame'
4 long stips of tape create a 'frame'. Use a spirit level and pencil or do it by eye if you've got the chops.
STEP 4: Plot Your Pattern
Use your trusty spirit level and a pencil.
I did this one square at a time, so I could adapt the design if I needed to.

STEP 6: Remove It When You Get Bored.

******I have a question****Since tape is has a flat surface, how did you use the level to ensure the tape is level (plumb). What was your technique?
