Our own photos make lovely artwork as well as deserve to be shown off! I found this vintage space divider in Toronto professional photographer Felix Wedgwood’s studio as well as thought, rather than just framing a picture, why not utilize it such as this to produce a canvas wall hanging? It’s simple to do as well as fairly inexpensive.

Materials as well as Tools

Digital photograph

2 curtain rods

2 screw eye hooks

Metal wire

Step 1: select a photograph

Select one that fits your area as well as has great deals of contrast, so it will look great enlarged. Black as well as white photos of natural scenery are a risk-free choice. utilizing a common digital camera (12 magapixels or higher) should work, as long as you utilize the original digital file; if the picture is as well small, it will look pixellated.

Step 2: Take the measurements

To determine the length as well as width of the canvas you’ll need, think about the shape of the original image, where it will hang, the ceiling height as well as exactly how you want the picture centred. Here, the canvas is about 11′ h. to fit the ceilings. In most rooms, 6′ h. x 3′ w. should provide remarkable results.

Step 3: upload your photo

Most regional print shops can do the job, however I suggest going to canvascanada.ca, where you can upload your picture as well as go into your preferred dimensions. For about $250, the business will print your picture on rolled canvas as well as ship it within Canada. Be sure to note whether your picture needs cropping.

Step 4: Do some simple sewing

Stitch 2″-wide pockets along the top as well as bottom of the canvas to feed curtain rods through. (If you’d rather not lose any type of of your image, order custom borders or add pockets utilizing similar fabric.) utilize rods with simple finials that won’t distract from the photograph. Screw 2 eye hooks into the ceiling as well as hang it from cable connected at the ends of the top rod. The weight of the bottom rod will keep the canvas taut.
