Here are some of our favourite inexpensive art projects we’re going to try out this weekend. Are you working on any art projects? Tell us about it in the comments below and share photos of your creations.

Add some pizzazz to your ceramic vases, plates, (mugs too!) with ceramic markers. They come in an array of colours and create a professional finish.
