This is amazing Mark.  We just had new gas heating installed two days ago and our house needs to be completely redecorated.  I was wanting to do some new art canvases for the walls and this idea is absolutely perfect.  Thanks as always Mark.  Lee xx

It was a fund project! Of course it is a very good project to do with kids. I would also recommend to use a comb with a fine teeth, it would make more texture.
