Using the brick and mortar walls of your home, a stack of nails, a hammer and a ton of brightly coloured yarn, you could wind up (pun intended) with an industrial-but-pretty piece of art on your wall.

Everyone's harping on about nail art at the moment, but we're more interested in a slightly different kind of nail art: that's right, using the brick and mortar walls of your home, a stack of nails, a hammer and a ton of brightly coloured yarn, you could wind up (pun intended) with an industrial-but-pretty piece of deconstructable art above your couch.

Or if you're worried about your landlord getting a little angsty about the gaping holes in the walls, may we suggest you construct this on a piece of pretty wood first before dinting the plasterboard?
