DIY Picture Canvas If you have lots of pictures but don't know what to do with them, then you can try to make your own canvas print.


Materials:

·Sandpaper
·Mod Podge
·Foam brush
·Paintbrush
·Black acrylic paint
·Square picture
·Paper cutter or scissors
·Scrap paper

Instructions:

1. Select a picture that you'd like for creating the print. Resize the image using your computer, then print it out.

2. Use a paper cutter to trim the image, creating a perfect square.

3. Give the front of the canvas a quick sanding with fine sandpaper, which helps the Mod Podge really adhere to the print and canvas.

4. Use a foam brush to coat the front of the canvas with a layer of Mod Podge and then position the print, smoothing gently. Don't worry if there are any bumps or puckers, they will smooth out once the glue is dry. Let rest for an hour before the next step.

5. Coat the print with a layer of Mod Podge, working first horizontally with the foam brush and then vertically.

6. Place a piece of scrap paper under the canvas, and coat the sides with black acrylic paint. Then let it dry completely.

All finished! You can hang this personalized canvas on the wall.
