When it comes to matters of home, I'm all about the DIY! It can be hard to achieve a cohesive theme on a limited budget, so it pays take matters (and sometimes a can of paint!) into your own hands.

STEP 1: Line it Up

Start by lining up three rows of tape on one cutting board. Place your dark tone (in this case, black) on the outsides and your light tone (white) in the middle.

STEP 2: Start your Pattern

Use your ruler to cut a clean 60 degree edge on the end of the lines of tape. Continue scoring your tape lines at 1-7/8"" intervals (this measurement is important to making the desired cube pattern).

STEP 3: See your cubes, repeat

Repeat the process with your middle tone (plaid) on the outsides and your light tone (white) in the middle again.

STEP 4: Complete your canvas

When you begin laying out the pattern, let the tape hang off the edges of the canvas a little. Don't press them down just yet, as you may find you'll want to adjust them a bit as you go along. Keep going until your canvas is full!
