DIY PAINTED PICNIC BLANKET
You will need:
1 4×5 Canvas drop cloth,
1 Can of Spray Paint Color of your choice
Painters tape
Ruler (optional)
Step 1. Lay out drop cloth on a hard, flat surface.
Step 2. Tape individual stripes, approx 3inches apart. Once tape is on the cloth, press out any bubbles or gaps.
Step 3. Spay paint cloth. Spray long even strokes. The canvas soaks up a bit of the paint, so go back and cover any spots. I used 1 can of spray paint.
Step 4. Let dry completely, about 2 hours.
Step 5. Carefully remove tape. Then admire your masterpiece!

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the purpose of blanket?
A picnic blanket is a lightweight, portable blanket that is often used to cover tables and chairs during outdoor gatherings such as picnics or barbecues. They are also popular among campers and hikers, who use them to protect themselves from the elements and to provide a comfortable place to sit. Blankets are available in a variety of colors and patterns and can be purchased in bulk online or at sporting goods stores.
What are blankets made of?
Picnic blankets are typically made of a lightweight, waterproof fabric such as cotton or polyester. They are often rectangular in shape and have a reversible design, so that they can be used either as a cover or a cushion. Picnic blankets are perfect for using in outdoor settings – such as at a park or beach – to provide protection from the sun and wind, and to keep you warm during chilly weather. They are also ideal for use at gatherings such as birthday parties, weddings, and other celebrations.
What size should a picnic blanket be?
It is difficult to recommend a specific size for a picnic blanket, as different individuals have different needs and preferences. If you are in the market for a new picnic blanket, it may be helpful to measure the area you will be using it on and compare that measurement to the dimensions of some of the larger picnic blankets on offer. Alternatively, you can try measuring your own body size and selecting a picnic blanket that corresponds to that size. In either case, it is important to make sure that the picnic blanket is comfortable and fits well – many people find that larger picnic blankets are more spacious and accommodating than smaller ones.
