I’ve watched about 10 videos on textured diy and yours was the clearest and the prettiest one I’ve seen (my taste) looks sooo good I have confidence now about doing mine after watching yours! Thank you!!

Hello Geneia. Here is my secret. I go to Hotel Outlet stores/warehouses. I buy many framed canvas art work. The size of canvas in this video cost me $5-$10 depending on the condition. Even very large art cost about $15.00. I bought more than 30 canvases. I'm a bit of a designer. So, I may make an art piece for the space I'm doing.

It does not have a hotel vibe. It gives off a beautiful "High End" look. Terric job! ❤️ I will definitely be trying this. Thank you

It's beautiful! I'm in the process of making one. Instead of spending anywhere from 15 for a canvas that I'd have to paint over up to 100-500 for an actual piece someone else did, I made my own. I measured how big I wanted it (34" tall x 66" long) to go above my fireplace. I went to Home Depot and bought regular construction wood. I got 2x2x but some people do 1x2s which also works and will make the canvas thinner. I built my frame just a basic frame with a support piece in the middle. I didn't even feel like doing 45degree cutes so I did it the lazy girl way and put some pocket holes in the long pieces and screwed into the small pieces. I figured since no one will see the actual way I made the frame, it doesn't have to be those perfect 45 degree cuts like you see on visible frames. Idk if I'm making sense. I then went to Walmart and bought one of their big painters drop cloth. It's something like 9ftx14ft or something big like that... for $12. It's not the best quality canvas but who inspects the quality of canvas at someone else's home? I just laid down the canvas, laid the frame down and cut out the canvas leaving a few inches of extra room to wrap around the back to secure it. Used my staple gun to secure it and done! Making the frame cost $20-25 with extra canvas AND wood for further projects. To make the canvas white, you just simply need to put a few layers of gesso on it (you can get that at any craft store, Walmart and I think Home Depot/Lowe's has it but not sure) but I like the natural roughness and color of the canvas so I left it as is. Now I'm just about to start the spackle! I found a HUGE one gallon tub of spackle from Lowe's for I think $16-19 and that will last for many more since I plan to make a few of these. I'm making a floating frame as well (the same kind of frame that was in this video) and is SO easy y'all wouldn't believe and also will be less than $15 or free if I end up using what I have. It's so fun and all in all will cost me 10% of what it would have cost to buy one done at the size I wanted. And it's 1 of 1 just like your piece!!

Do you think I could add a strip in the center using mod podge and glitter? I’ve seen it done on canvas but I’m not sure if it would adhere to spackling. Thanks!

Hello Geneia I want to thank you for the inspiration. I am not a DIYER, but I am going to take your advice about buying artwork from Ross to create a smaller piece of artwork. I need a very large canvas (48 x 60) for living room. I think I am going to use painters tape to create a border paint it and also paint the sides with black acrylic paint. Thanks again for getting me to think out of the box.

Hey. No I didn’t seal mine. And it’s still holding up good. But that wouldn’t be a bad idea.
