You can create a beautiful project in just minutes!.Plus, to get all the colors of iron-on I would need it would cost a lot to create a similar result. But it would be very difficult and time consuming to create something as detailed as the design above. I love to create my own designs in Cricut Design Space and then cut the iron-on out with my machine. It is a floral mandala with many of the colors I use in my home. The design I chose is so pretty and intricate. There are so many amazing iron-on designs to choose from. While your stain is drying you can apply your Cricut Iron-On Design to the canvas. For this project, I only used one coat of stain with no protective finish. Wait 8 hours before applying a clear finish. Allow the stain to dry 4 – 6 hours before applying another coat.

The longer you wait, the deeper color your stain will be.Īfter allowing the stain to set, wipe off any excess stain from your wood. Paint the stain on using a paintbrush or foam brush. I used Minwax Classic Gray Stain for my frame. Pull the canvas off the frame and set aside. You can also simply cut the canvas away from the frame using a utility knife to save time. I chose to remove the staples using a flat head screwdriver to pry them up and then a set of pliers to pull out the staples. Start by removing the canvas from your frame. Helpful Tip: Michaels has canvas sales several times a year, so stock up when they are half price and you will always have one on hand when you need it! Since frames and framed art can be so expensive this is a way to create beautiful art for your home on a budget. You add a design to the canvas you removed and attach it to the back. Then, you can paint or stain the frame any color you like. You remove the canvas to reveal the frame underneath. Creating a reverse canvas is a technique used to take an inexpensive canvas you get at the craft store and transforming it into a beautiful art piece. To start with, we will create the reverse canvas. Cricut® Iron-On Designs™, Floral Mandala.Thank you to Cricut for sponsoring this post and providing me with some of the materials used in this post.
