Do-it-yourself frame Canvas Print
We brought out daughter’s love of ballet into our home with a professionally printed, ready to display canvas print from Photowall. The photo is the artwork of Gerd Altmann from Germany.
The canvas arrived pre-shipped and ready to assemble. The framing is pre-drilled and 3m tape is applied to the outside edge to make fastening the canvas quick and easy.
Inside the box is a set of instructions on how to put the frame and canvas together, 4 sides of framing, and 4 L brackets that fasten the entire frame together. The 16 screws that are used to fasten the L brackets to the frame are simple thumb turn knobs.
We didn’t need any tools to assemble the frame and canvas. However, we did need a Philips screw driver to fasten the wall hanger to the wood frame after completing the first step.
I recommend using your kitchen table and placing the frame down with all the corners align together. Once they are laid out you simply apply an L bracket to each corner by lining up with the pre-drilled holes. Use one of the thumb turn bolts to fasten the L brackets to the frame.
Repeat this step for the remaining 3 corners until the frame is all together. Next move the frame and roll out your designed canvas. You will notice each corner of the canvas is already pre cut to insure a good fastening around the frame and corners.
Next remove the 2- sided 3m tape attached to the frame, all the way around. Then place the frame onto your designed canvas. Line the frame up on the canvas and once satisfied, start applying the canvas to the edge of the frame pushing firmly against the 3m tape. Once you have one side fastened to the 3m tape, you want to do the same thing on the opposite side to insure it’s evenly applied. You will repeat this until the entire canvas is attached to the entire frame.
Now fasten the wall hanger to the wood frame. You will need your Philips screw driver to screw in the screw. That’s it, you’re done.
We have not yet hung our Canvas Print, as we are redesigning our daughter’s bedroom after the holidays, but we know that the canvas print we ordered will be a welcomed addition. Photowall did an excellent job!
