Ever heard of art on the floor, no? Sounds interesting right!why not...so far we have talked about art on walls, ceiling , canvas and paper... so why not floor !!!
I think your garage, basement or even a small storage is the best place to experiment this unless you think you are a confident artist and can do it in your living room... but again you don't have to be creative or an artist to paint. You can either paint your floors by hand, or can get stencil patterns to do it. But below
This technique should be applied to straight floors and definitely a success on concrete floors. You might not want to try this on your super expensive hardwood floors until & unless you absolutely hate them. You will save a lot on buying rugs if you excel in this. Create faux area rugs, patterns can be either geometric or random.

Tools and Materials:

-Paint roller with one large roller attachment

-extension pole and one small foam roller attachment

-three paint trays

-pencil

-painter's tape

-measuring tape

-straight-edge ruler

-utility knife

-small chip brush

-two different shades of epoxy floor paint (you can use low-VOC Dexcoat brand, Smooth Deck Coating)

-artist medium (Liquitex brand matte medium)

How to:

1. With a large paint roller attached to an extension pole, apply two coats of floor paint to the entire floor and allow it to dry completely between coats.

2. Design and draw the desired pattern on paper.

3. Re-create a larger scale pattern on the floor, using painter's tape, measuring tape, straight-edge ruler, pencil and a utility knife.

4. Using a chip brush, apply the artist medium to the edge of the tape to prevent the accent paint from seeping under the tape. Let dry completely.

5. Disassemble the extension pole from the paint roller and attach a small foam roller in place of the large roller. Apply two-coats of a contrasting floor paint to create the topcoat of the design.

6. Allow each coat to dry completely.

7. Once all paint is dry, peel off the tape with the aid of a utility knife to reveal the pattern detail.
