create your own wall art

It’s been ages since I brought you a ‘create your own‘ post. Though unplanned, I just had to share this wall art we (or specifically Karen) created for our product shots.

Step 1: buy a canvas (this one’s 36 x 48″) from a craft supplies store. You could make your own but it’s damn fiddly and tricky to get spot-on…in other words, straight!

Step 2: order one of our prints to fit. We can print any of our designs to this size. Much bigger and you’re in ‘wall mural territory’…then you can go as large as you like!

Step 3: mount it. The approach varies according to materials. If you’re mounting on board, spray-mount works fine. With canvas, water-based PVA is probably best.

We speak from experience, as we tried to use spray-mount (pictured in the first shot) and found it was practically useless at bonding this alphabet print to our canvas.

Step 4: once in place, smooth-out any bubbles and ensure the print is firmly stuck. Step 5: fix it to the wall. We opted for the much-loved ‘hammer and nails’ approach!

Step 6: Do nothing. Just sit back and admire your work! Looks pretty cool doesn’t it?

We can produce larger format prints like this for any of our wall art designs. Just choose a design, email your required dimensions and we’ll quote you a price
