Quotes on Canvas

These are quotes from one of my favorite books, The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. I’ve done this project a few times already, so you can read my own personal descriptions of it here, here, and here.

DIY Decorated Glassware

Quote on Canvas

This is my 3rd time doing this project. I used mod-podge (matte) to glue down strips of piano sheet music onto an 8 x 10 canvas. After putting on 1” vinyl letters, I sealed the letter stickers with another coat of mod-podge to keep paint from seeping under them, which happened during my previous experiences with this project. Then I painted the canvas with an ombre effect using acrylic paint. Once it dried, I used an x-acto knife to peel off the letters, which was somewhat more difficult because of the mod-podge, and I had to be careful not to peel any paint along with the stickers. Then I painted one more coat of mod-podge to give it a finished look.

Quote on Canvas

For this project, I used mod-podge (matte) to glue down scraps from an old atlas onto a 16 x 20 canvas. After putting on 2” vinyl letters, I painted the entire canvas black. Once it dried, I used an x-acto knife to peel off the letters, and then I painted one more coat of mod-podge to give it a finished look.
