Introduction: Canvas Thread Art
This craft is so easy and great for a rainy day activity, with only a few materials needed you can make whatever design you want and hang your beautiful canvas thread art for everyone to see!
Supplies
To start, gather your supply’s,
1: Canvas - small - medium
2: acrylic paint of any colour
3: thread of the colour paint you’ve chosen and white
4: small needle
Step 1: Painting
Step 2: Print Off a Design
Print off an easy line drawing from the internet, ensure that it will fit well on the canvas
Step 3: Stick the Template to the Canvas
Step 4: Begin Pinning Through the Paper and Canvas
Using a small pin, go along the lines of your design. At every point where the direction of the line goes push a pin through. Where the line is straight, less pin points will be needed as there aren’t any changes in the line.
Step 5: Threading
Step 6: Finished
Once you have sewed your entire canvas with your design you can hang it up and enjoy! I recommend doing a few of these with different designs and hang them up as a collection.
Hope you try it!
