I need to charge my digital camera batteries so I can take decent photos... These are all from my iPhone... so I apologize for the laziness and poor photo quality. Not to mention my photos are out of order.
I am currently obsessed with photo canvases. Every time Groupon offers it, I get one. We currently have 2 large ones, 1 smaller one, and 1 on the way that I have ordered.
I read somewhere online where it was super easy to make your own. So I had two favorite photos printed off, purchased some canvases (there is a cheap art supply store by our house that has the cheapest and largest assortment), and some Mod Podge (using a 50% off coupon at A.C. moore) and was ready to go.

{Here is a closer shot. With the second one I painted the edges on all sides with black paint to go better with the black and white photo. This is one from our wedding.} |

{I used my paper cutter to trim the photo so it was slightly smaller than the canvas for the best fit} |
I am going back to the store tomorrow to pick up more canvases... I am hooked on this fun and easy project.
