sweet ornament or bedroom decor




Here is a quick ornament for your Christmas tree, or a little plaque that you can hang in your child's room.

Easy Canvas Ornament Tutorial

Supplies:
Small artist's canvas--ours was 4"x4"
Paint
Scrapbooking embellishments-we used Making Memories Glitter Bling frames
Hot glue or silver thumbtack
Coordinating ribbon
Modge Podge or glue


1. Paint your canvas a coordinating color
2. Trim your photo so it will fit in the sticker frame. Next either Modge Podge it or glue it to the canvas.
3. Add the glitter frame and any other embellishments
4. Hot glue or thumbtack the ribbon in place and tie a bow so you can hang it.

This would be a sweet tree ornament, or a cute accessory for a little girls' room!

  1. We made some ornaments very similar to these at our family party after Thanksgiving dinner. They were even simple enough for the little kids to make. They put their names and the date on the back so they have a great little keepsake for years to come.

  5. We made something similar for my stepdad with a picture of the dog (it's the only grandkid he's getting from us for a while).

    Great idea for an ornament or even a door hanger!
