DIY Photo Canvas

Hi my dear friends! Today I want to share a diy photo canvas tutorial with you. Now, here we go.


Supplies:

- Blank canvases
- Enlarged photo prints on photo paper
- Mod Podge Matte Finish
- Foam brushes
- Black paint
- Utility knife
- Cutting board

Instructions:

1. Choose the photo you want to create your canvas with and have it enlarged and printed to your chosen size.

2. Buy a canvas in a corresponding size.

3. Using your foam brush, cover the top of your canvas with a layer of Mod Podge.
4. Place your photo on top of the Mod Podge covered surface and flatten it with your hands to ensure that it adheres nicely. Allow it to dry.

5. After it dries, cut off any portion of the photo that is overhanging the edge of the canvas with your utility knife.

6. Paint a thin layer of Mod Podge right over the top.

7. Quickly grab a blank canvas and sandwich it on top of your wet photo. Gently press the two surfaces together. Now, peel the blank canvas off and you will be left with that authentic canvas texture.

8. Paint the edges of your canvas black using a small foam brush. This will probably require 2 coats, maybe 3, but it’s quick and easy. Let it Dry completely.

That's it. Now you can hang up your own custom canvas.
