My husband made a set of 4 canvas paintings with flower prints on for our anniversary last year and to say I was surprised and super excited is an understatement. Here are the instructions on how to make your very own.
Supplies
- Design or piece of art
- Canvas or multiple canvases
- Pencil
- Transfer paper
- Paint
- Paint brushes
- Picture hanging hardware
- Ruler
- Find a pattern or piece of art.
- Decide how many pieces and how large the project will be when completed.
- Enlarge it in a graphic editing program.
- If multiple canvases will be used decide their spacing and set up, remember this information to put the finished art on the wall correctly.
- Print out the design.
- Use transfer paper and trace the design on the canvas.
- Paint the designs.
- Paint the edge of the canvas a color darker than the darkest color in the design.
- Add hanging hardware the back of the canvas once the paint is dry.
- Hang on the wall using the measurements recorded in step 4.
