Vinyl decals (handmade or bought) seem to be the fastest and easiest way to go when creating your own piece of plywood art. But then again, Laura's found piece of weathered plywood was effortless and can be distressed in the backyard with the elements. We're really digging Plywerk's photo mounting idea to create a salon style grouping of plain plywood pieces. Minimal in design and color but adds a ton of texture to the space. Our favorite just might be J.T.'s artistic vision--taking a drill bits of different sizes and drilling into the wood. His method reveals alternate colors of the plywood making this a great solution for DIY art. If you're like us, drawing simple shapes is within our comfort zone and we found the perfect example for inspiration here.

I don't love the art but I do appreciate the way the grain of the wood plays off the grain in the marble. Very cool.

I'm not interested in plywood art. However, I live that fuschia chair. It would be lovely in my living room.

Beth,
Not a big deal but your attribution of the first image to Laura's Art Fusion is incorrect. It is actually my apartment submitted for 2008's Small Cool Contest. See link below: http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/chicago/small-cool-2008-midwest/midwest-14-annies-logan-square-home-048199
Thanks!

does anyone have suggestions about how to hang a large piece of plywood like this? Or even the small ones for that matter...
