Center for Innovation Webinar - Design to Value

Because of my impatience, I like to use a good quality paint like this to make the job as easy and fun as possible.. A nice gloss white is always my favorite on pieces like this, but feel free to experiment!

I put them out on the fabric and traced around each one, leaving about 2-3 inches extra to fold over.. Well, maybe a little more than that.I just eyeballed it!.

I picked up some small lower-case letters that spelled out Jack from the craft store.I also grabbed a really big “J”.I painted them all with the same white craft paint, just so they’d match.. Kennedy helped me wrap each canvas sort of like a present.

We used hot glue to keep everything really tight and make our corners as sharp as possible.We found the hot glue worked better than a staple gun for this because some of the fabrics were thicker than others and needed a little extra smooshing in places to make them look really crisp.. We attached all the letters with hot glue and then the whole projects was ready to shine!.

Side note: Do you see the new nursery floors there?

Do you see them?!to make the area feel a little bit more detailed and richer, we got to work adding some easy Valentine’s Day-style decorations..

It all started with the big felt X’s and O’s.We cut them out to the size of full sheets of felt and then ironed them onto our newly-prettified wall using.
