Step 1: Cover your canvas in the fabric you selected!
Step 2: Secure it with a staple gun on the backside of the wood frame.
Make sure there is no loose fabric, and that it is tightly stapled.
Step 3: Using contact paper cut out the letters of your saying on a circut machine. If you don't have a circut machine, you can simply print off your saying in whatever font and size desired. Then place your contact over the top and of the paper, trace and cut out with an exacto knife.
Position the letters on the canvas. When you have them where you'd like them to be, peel off the paper backing and stick the letters to the fabric.
Step 4: When all the letters have been placed, spray a thick layer of spray paint over the entire canvas. Let dry. If needed, apply another coat.
Step 5: When it is dry, peel the letters off. The color and pattern of the fabric underneath the paint will POP through creating a GREAT contrast!
Hang it on your wall and enjoy!
I love the look it has with the fabric underneath!
Another design option:
Instead of covering the canvas with fabric, just place your letters onto the canvas, spray and peel. The black and white combination is always a classic.
