That is pretty great also, but I don’t think it comes out as nicely as your tutorial does. Walmart does have some great canvases that are inexpensive and I like how they have flatter ones instead of the ones that are raised. ![]() Just a thought if you wish to go bigger than 8×10. They are very inexpensive you can get an 18×24 color print on paper for around $2.00. Since I don’t have a big printer, I get my prints done at Staples. I also like the idea of wrapping the photo all the way around so I will be trying that later with regular copy paper. I tried this using a photo printed on photo paper and instead of wrapping it around, I painted the sides with black acrylic paint and it came out so nice! I have seen some tutorials on how to transfer the photo to canvas using mod podge but I have tried a few times and it kept removing parts of the actual photo, so I decided it is not for me. Yep, but you’re getting the look for less! You’ll see a bit of the texture come through which gives it the impression that it was printed on canvas. The paper will actually glue down pretty tight to the canvas. Put an extra coat of Mod Podge across the front of the canvas for a protective top coat.Īnd that’s it! You have some great personal canvas prints of your favorite photos! You can also frame in a 8×10 inch frame if preferred or hang as is (I used double sided tape in my laundry room). This way you’ll have clean edges when the project is complete. With the little bit of overlap, trim the corners back so you can fold around the back of the board. Print your photos on normal printer laser paper, but do not trim out. Coat your 8×10 inch canvas boards in Mod Podge and center the printable on the board. I had a bunch of new projects with my recent Laundry Room makeover and thought I would share an easy one with you today that’s cheap and quick to make… Mod Podge Canvas Photo Prints. This was the longest, most tedious part of the project and my finger tips definitely felt smoother afterwards! □ It also makes a mess (lots of wet paper pieces!) so you’ll want to do it on a table you can easily clean… not on your couch or something.Make sure you follow me on Instagram and Pinterest for a sneak peek into my recent projects! When it was finally completely dry, I used my fingers to spread a little water on the paper- one section at a time- and started rubbing the paper off. ![]() I painted a thick layer of the Liquitex Gel medium onto my canvas:Īnd then pressed my picture face down on the canvas… trying to get it as smooth as possible:Īnd then I let it dry overnight. ![]() I’m not 100% sure what the difference is but I played it safe and followed her instructions!) (Elsie said to use a laser image… my printer is an ink jet printer so I wasn’t sure that would work. I printed out a large black and white image from our wedding on a laser printer at the school where I work. (or, any gift, really!) I was inspired by Elsie Larson’s tutorial over on A beautiful mess and motivated to actually make one by the Pinterest Challenge.Īfter a trip to Hobby Lobby with my 40% off coupon, I had a pack of 2- 11″x14″ white canvases and some gel medium… all for about $15. Hello! I have a last minute Valentine’s gift idea for you all.
