DIY Canvas Photo


So I had some leftover 8x10 canvases from a previous craft project that I really wanted to use somehow...I had seen you could use wooden boards and mod podge pics onto them..so I decided to do the same with my canvases.

I picked my pics (ha) made my glue.. ( you can make homemade mod podge using a 1:1 ratio of Elmer's glue and water...much cheaper! ), bought some cheapie sponge brushes and was ready to go.

First coat the back of the pic AND the front of canvas with glue. Line up the corners really well and smooth out all wrinkles. Then brush on a coat of the glue on top of pic using long, neat brush strokes. It will dry CLEAR. Also seal the edges real well with the glue.

Then just wait until it dries.

Voila....
