Now, here’s a quick tutorial of how I made my burlap canvas art.

First, I painted my canvas with white paint.

Then, I drew lines with a pencil and ruler.

Lastly, I wrote the words of my saying with black paint.  I had wanted to create a stencil with my Silhouette, but that didn’t work out so I free-handed it.  It’s not perfect, but that is okay. Smile

That picture of Cy and me was taken when we were dating.  Smile  We dated four months before we got engaged and married 6 months later.  You can read our love story HERE.

I also used a 4×12 stretched burlap canvas to make something for Eli’s room.

I used a cup to outline the size of baseball I wanted.

(Yes, we love Duck Dynasty.) Winking smile

Then I used white paint, a sharpie, and a red chalk paint pen to make my baseball.

You wouldn’t have to use those supplies, but that is what I had on hand.

  1. I am not a painter or artist in any way! What type of paint brush did you use for the words? Would paint pens work or maybe to at least outine the letters then fill them in with a brush?
    I do love your sign!!

  2. I don’t have twitter and there is no Michaels close to me. so I will miss the activity. Will there be any other way?

    God Bless
