Looking for cool arts and crafts ideas for teens, kids, and anyone who loves creative art projects? Making your own artwork is a favorite DIY for teens for a reason, you can make cool room decor tailored to your style, you can learn new crafting skills, and you get to express yourself with color, paint, glue, string, and tons of other cool art and craft supplies. This is my idea of weekend fun, so I picked out the most awesome art projects I could find. Many are inexpensive, some are super quick, almost all make ultra cool DIY gift ideas for friends and family.
