How to Frame a Canvas Print and Easy Canvas Review

* This is a sponsored post by Easy Canvas Prints. While I received product to review, this is my honest opinion and review of their products and service. I had such a wonderful experience working with Easy Canvas prints.  I was able to easily navigate their website, quickly upload my chosen picture, and quickly check out.  This is very important when you have a ton of little people running around constantly! I mentioned this before in the Easy Canvas Giveaway, but wanted to reiterate what an easy, affordable, and great experience it was to work with Easy Canvas.  Are you ready to see the final product? Picture Our Easy Canvas Print Our canvas turned out so much more beautiful than I ever expected it to.  That is not a negative, but a positive!  I am very pleased with the way the portrait has turned out, and I cannot wait to have our friends and family over to see it.  Everything about working with Easy Canvas Prints has been just that, easy.  But what's a print without a frame?  I had to start looking for a frame, and I chose the one in the above photo after tons of searches! 
Here are the supplies needed to place your canvas in a frame:
  • offsetting hooks
  • double sided tape
  • paper (dust cover)
  • mirror hooks
  • twistable cable wire
  • wire cutter
  • drill
Picture Framing supplies Open your package of offset hooks and place them about six inches apart on every side.  Picture Space out the offset hooks Once you have those placed, go ahead and attach them using our drill. Picture Attach the offset hooks. Add your double sided tape to the frame around the edge of the canvas, covering all sides. Picture double sided tape around the canvas Place your paper over the back of the canvas, making sure to seal it down well. Cut off any extra paper. Picture Cover the canvas completely Make sure you cut a hole into the back of the paper CAREFULLY, don't cut your canvas!  This is to allow the canvas to breath and will allow for temperature and humidity changes, keeping the canvas safe from warping. Picture Apply a small breathing hole for your canvas. Grab our mirror hooks, wire cutters, and wire for the next steps!   Place the mirror hooks about a third of the way down from the top of your picture, attach with your drill and the screws provided. (Sorry, this goes so fast I forgot to take a picture of this step, but it's easy!) Picture Grab your wire and wire cutters Attach your wire and cut off any excess that you did not need after wrapping it.   Make sure you have about 3 to 4 inches from the top, see picture below.  Picture Distance of the wire from the top of the frame. You are all set and ready to hang your new framed canvas print!  Here's a pinnable image below for you to save and come back to later once you have received your canvas! 
Picture How to Frame your own Canvas Prints Working with Easy Canvas Prints was a pleasure and wonderful experience.  I cannot stress how easy it was to navigate, customize, and order our canvas.  If you are looking to have a picture made into a canvas, I 110% recommend Easy Canvas Prints.  (Then come back and make your frame!)
