Fabric Painting Day #5

These are the steps used to make your painting displayable once the silhouettes are complete.

1-cut a piece of cardboard 2" to 2-1/2" smaller than your canvas.  It will allow a 1" to 1-1/4" border of fabric to wrap the board with.

2-place the cardboard on the center of the back of your painting. Using the same techniques as the photo boards, glue the 4 corners in place first. 

3-fold and the glue the top and bottom edge next, followed by the left and right edges.

4-cut a piece of heavy weight paper that is 1/4" smaller than the back no all sides.  Center it on the back, and hot glue in place.

5-a hanger is optional.  Write you name on the back and hand them in.
