Holiday Art in Under 5 Minutes!

This all started when I found a holiday themed tea towel I loved and wanted to display. But framing it seemed costly. I found the solution under my workbench-- an unused canvas wrapped frame. 5 minutes later and I had darling Christmas decor perfect for hanging or leaning my mantel!
I snagged this winter tea towel for a few dollars at an Anthropologie sale last year. You can find similar festive tea towels at Crate & Barrel, HomeGoods, or other retailers. Or search Etsy or your thrift for fun vintage ones!
I only needed three supplies-- a tea towel, stapler, and canvas. Gold stapler optional. SORT OF. (haha!)
Open up the stapler, pull fabric taunt, and staple to the back of the frame. (more details on how to do this on the blog)
My daughter wanted more color, so some red pom pom trim to the rescue.
Here she is! All wrapped and ready to go in UNDER 5 minutes. Unless you include the ironing, which I don't. ;-) Find more details and the order in which I stapled the sides on the blog.
Enjoyed the project?
