When we moved into our Italian home one of the first things I asked my boys was if they would like a particular theme for their bedroom. They did and with out question they proclaimed Star Wars!
Yay. I love my little geeks!
So I set about finding things for their room that would bring Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker, aliens, and distant galaxies to life in their bedroom. It’s definitely a work in progress as finding Star Wars themed items here in Italy is a lot harder than I anticipated it would be, so we are slowly deciding on things and ordering online.
This summer as I was going through my youngest son Evan’s clothes I came across an old Star Wars t-shirt I’d gotten for him at Old Navy. I knew immediately I had to incorporate it into their bedroom some how.
As it turns out I had a few old canvases that were perfect for this project and this DIY Star Wars Canvas Wall Art Upcycle was born.
Once I gathered my supplies it took me about five minutes to complete.
So easy. So cute. My boys love it. I am even debating taking one of my Star Wars t-shirts and using it to make another.
The best part about this project. It cost me absolutely nothing to make. You can easily make one of your own using fabric (think pillow cases, sheets, anything really) and even an old piece of wood or a cereal box would even work for this project. If you make one of your own please come back and share your creation with me!

This is amazing. I want to make a million!!
Such a cute idea! I should do this with all of my sons Angry Birds and Lego shirts. He would get a kick out of them. Actually, it makes me want to go thrifting to find more to use so I don’t have to wait for him to grow out of his shirts!
I bet! Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to comment! If you do end up making this. Would love to see what you came up with!
I like this idea. I can do this for my daughter who is a varsity cheerleader and she can have her cheer practice shirts as keepsakes forever!
