I have been trying to get this canvas done for a while now...it's finally done!!
I couldn't find my staple gun so I used hot glue to attach the fabric to the canvas.
Here's how I tackled the corners:
Pinch the fabric:
Fold over the corner:
Then fold it over again:
Hot glue it down (or staple it) and your all finished!!
The canvas is a recycled one from a previous project that no longer matches my decor, I already had the fabric (a whole roll of upholstery fabric for free), and I got the chipboard H at hobby lobby for 50% off!!!
I'll be uploading this to all of my favorite linky parties!!! Check out the tab above and go and visit them!!
