Nail & Yarn Wall Art
A nail and yarn wall art is an economical, high-impact way to transform the look of an abandoned wall in your house. You will need a handful of nails, balls of yarn and a hammer to make it. Fix nails in the wall and start mapping out the design with the yarn. Use brighter colours to add some pop to the plain wall.
