Just popping in quickly to share this weekend’s project in The Chronicle Herald (available online, too).

I made these cute photo canvases for our dining room, because I pretty much had a STROKE when I saw how much the professional versions cost.

Psssst, I even show you the trick for getting the canvas texture that the professional ones have. Check it out, will you?
