I love this 3D space canvas I saw at my friends house. It’s easy to put together and I’ll show you how. Perfect for the space themed room.
Materials
Canvas (large size)
Foam balls (for planets)
Tacky craft glue
Black acrylic paint
Blue and green acrylic paint
Glitter
Carboard stars
Coloured matchsticks
Pipe cleaner
Instructions
Canvas
Paint the earth in the corner using blue and green acrylic paint. Paint the remainder of the in canvas black and sprinkle glitter over before the paint dries. Allow to dry before adding the other details.
3 D Planets / Moons
Cut foam in half, paint and glue on canvas with tacky craft glue (not regular craft glue or the foam will errode). Tip: To create craters in the planets, use the bottom end of a pencil and press into the foam before painting.
Stars
Use cardboard gold and silver stars and glue where desired.
Spaceship
Make two triangles with coloured toothpicks and use pipe cleaners for the rocket blasts. Glue on canvas in place
