Fabric Art in Under an Hour!

What You Will Need:

* 1/2 - 1yd of Fabric (Depending on Print and Board Size)
* Foam Board, Canvas or Wood Board (Size is Up to You)
* Sharpened Scissors
* Spray Adhesive
* Stapler


STEP 1:
Lay board flat on fabric.
(Make sure your pattern is straight if using a printed fabric.)
Cut the fabric around the board leaving a 1 - 1 1/2" border.


STEP 2:
Spray the front side of the board with Spray Adhesive.
Lay the glued side of the board flat on your fabric.
Make sure to smooth out any bubbles that may occur in your fabric.


STEP 3:
Cut the corners ofyour fabric as shown.
This allows the fabric to lay flat once it has been folded.


STEP 4:
Fold over all 4 sides of the fabric over your board.
Make sure to pull each side as tight as possible for a smooth looking front.


STEP 5:
Staple corners for extra holding power.


Let Dry and Enjoy!
We created all 4 of these in about 30 minutes!


Hanging Options:
Try hanging these one-of-a-kind canvases with ribbons, tacks, grommets or place on a decorative shelf.
