Put Your Photo onto Canvas!

Here's a quick and easy way to put your own photo's onto canvas. Oh...and did I mention CHEAP!


Tools:

Tissue Paper

Printer Paper

Tape

InkJet Printer

Modge Podge

Canvas (I used a 8x10)

Craft Paint

Foam Brushes


1. Take a piece of printer paper and use it to cut out tissue paper to size.

2. Tape the tissue paper to printer paper by folding tape over the edge of the paper that feeds into printer.

3. Print your image the size of your canvas

4. Let image dry completely, then trim out your picture

5. Cover front of canvas with modge podge

6. Smooth tissue paper picture onto canvas being careful to get out all bubbles and not to tear the paper.

7. While the modge podge was drying I used craft paint to paint edges and painted a border around picture.

8. Let entire canvas dry.

9. Apply any touch up paint as needed.

10. Cover front and sides with another coat of modge podge and let dry.

11. Hang and Enjoy!
