DIY Canvas Prints

I have always liked the look of canvas prints, but could never bring myself to pay a lot for them.  About a year ago I came across this blog post from Literally Inspired on Pinterest that changed everything.  I can make them myself!

The hard part was choosing what pictures I wanted to use.  Once I had that done, I waited for Walgreens to have a great sale on photos and ordered my three 11 x 14 photos.  I love Hobby Lobby and Joann's Fabric so I know that they frequently have artists canvases on sale.  When the sale was right, I picked up two packs of two 11 x 14 canvases and some mod podge.

I finally had time this summer to complete this project.  It was so easy!  The blog post gives very easy and simple directions to follow.  I painted the canvases one afternoon during nap time and then finished the project the next morning.

Here are my beautiful canvases!
