Alex’s nursery used to be the study. Right over where the computer sat, I had four canvases covered with very girly fabric (I like pink, okay?). Now, we’ve got the comfy couch there, and the pink flowery canvases don’t quite fit.<\/p>\n
Enter the Walmart fabric section. Fat quarters are just the right size to cover my 16X18 canvases, and we managed to find several in animal print – zebra, giraffe, cheetah, and snow leopard.<\/p>\n
At $1.07 a fat quarter, they were the right price.<\/p>\n
We also picked up a few more of the cute animal cut-outs (69\u00a2 a piece!), and a few thumbtacks.<\/p>\n
After prying the old fabric off the canvases, I ironed out my new jungle fabric and stretched it taut. Placing the canvas face downward, I folded the fabric over and used the thumbtacks to tack it to the wood in the back. Turning corners was the hardest part. I had to go up all sides, leaving the corners until last. Warning: this makes your thumbs tired. I would recommend using a hammer to get the tacks in securely.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Finally, I turned my covered canvases over, picked an animal cut-out, and hot glued it to the front. Simple and super cute, right?<\/p>\n
