Great tutorial! The only thing I do differently is staple the back of the frame at the 4 corners to hold the frame together (couple of staples in each corner). I then remove the staples from the front and fill with wood putty, let it dry and sand, paint, stain or make a distressed look to the frame.
Michelle Goericke great tip!
Arrow staple remover is a must! You are so right. It works so well.
Its one of my favorite gadgets! :)
Excelente explicación, muchas gracias por dedicarnos tiempo para aprender tan interesante proyecto. Bendiciones ❤
I can't believe this was your first video. It was excellent. So easy to follow :) Thanks!
My pleasure!! Thank you for the encouragement! More to come when my toddler's aren't trying to get in the video 🤣🤣🤣
You did the BEST tutorial ever on REVERSE canvas. It is much appreciated :) Truly!
Stephanie Watson thank you so much for the kind words! That's a HUGE compliment 🤗🤗🤗💖💖💖
Great instructions!
Glad it was helpful!
This is my second time watching your video (I don't think I commented the first time, which was a while ago). While I really wanted to put a saying on a pennant style banner, I couldn't find any except a rectangle, but I did find canvases on sale at Hobby Lobby and I remembered I had seen your video so I bought the set of canvases and came back to watch you again. Just want to thank you for this great tutorial. I just hope my husband will run to Lowes or Home Depot to get me that handy dandy staple remover.
Charlotte C thank you for your sweet comment! I hope you have as much fun making these as I have. I give lots of them away as gifts and people always like them. Enjoy!
Who knew there was an actual frame under there?! Thanks for sharing, I tried this myself today. I like things as simple as possible so I cut the canvas on the frame (without pulling the staples out) and just glue white card stock to the back to neaten up. You wouldn't even know there was extra staples and canvas on there!
Cornish TT that’s another good option!
Great video! Thanks SO much for describing all the tools you use. Very much appreciated.
So glad you liked it! Thanks for the kind comment
Great video, easy to follow!! I can tell your husband loves you because he filmed your face more than the canvas! So sweet!!
Lol! Thank you... I'm going to tell him you figured him out! 🤣🤣🤣
🤗
Thank you so much for the video! Since this is my first time, I love the shopping list and your detailed instructions. Great Job!
Thank you so much for the stapler remover recommendation. I agree with you. I've seen other videos with folks using pliers, scissors etc and it takes so much time and looks dangerous. Great video. New subbie.
Thank you!!! Yes I do not want anyone hurting themselves 💖💖💖
This was the best and neatest reverse canvas tutorial that I have seen, I like that you took the staples out of the back and the finished back is neat and tidy. Thanks for the great instructions!
My pleasure! Glad you liked it 🙏🏽 -Lisette
I am so glad I came across your video!! I bought a brothers cutting machine almost two years ago and just opened the box and started playing with it a couple weeks ago. I felt so lost and wasn’t sure what I wanted to make with it. I am off to the craft and hardware store to make some of these tomorrow!! I’m looking forward to seeing more videos, you make it so easy to follow and understand. Thank you❤️
I'm so glad you liked it! I definitely plan to make more. Thanks for the sweet comment, best of luck with yours!
Thank you for sharing-I’ve never made one and now I will attempt it after watching your video! It was clear and very helpful that you gave the measurements and tools you used and tips for cutting-please do more videos in the future-they really help!!!:)
My pleasure! I hope to do more soon 🙏🏽 glad you liked it
You make it look easy, can't wait to try it.
Thank you so much for the kind words and encouragement! I'd love to see what you make
Excellent video! Informative, concise and not long winded! lol
Rasma Pludums thank you for the kind words of encouragement! I appreciate it 🙏🏽
I've watched your video twice and am ready to jump in for my first reverse canvas project! Thanks for the clear, explicit explanation of each step.
By the way, I found the stapler, remover, and staples at my Lowe's store today for less than $20.
Awesome! You can do it :) good luck!
I really enjoyed your video and the fact that you use every day tools when you make your projects. I'm inspired to give this a try.
Nancy Todd thank you for the kind words! 💕
Awesome tutorial. You made it look easy. I have a ton of designs I've been using to make wood signs. This looks so much quicker and easier than cutting and sanding the wood, painting or staining, then using sign vinyl as-is or as a template. I'm definitely going to give your method a try.
Awesome thanks for the positive feedback! I'd love to hear how it goes if you try it.
Great video! I’m going to try your method today! It looks so neat when you’re finished ! Love it!
Hi, thank you for the kind comment, I hope you made one!
Just a quick tip that has helped me... heat your platen for a few seconds and then place your HTV on it to warm up the glue. It makes it easier and faster to weed. Helps with less rips also. :) Great video and new subbie!!
Mrs Arrington thanks for the tip!
BESO Boutique School thank you for responding!!!! Love your videos!
This is exactly what I've had in mind to do, but I didn't know how to flesh it out!! Thank you!!
Also....thought of Ross from Friends when you were counting to 5....😂
Sarah Zepke I'm so glad you liked it!!
Great video, thank you so much. I'm going to start my first canvas.
Thanks for the kind words! So happy you're going to try one!
This is probably the best use of a Michael's student / lvl 1 canvas that I've seen yet - I made the mistake of buying those to paint on, and it was ugly.
Thanks!
😍😍 My daughter was born on 5.19.16! Awesome video, thanks!
Aw how sweet! It’s a great birthday lol great time of year. Happy 2 days late birthday to your little girl!!
wow! i never thought that there's a frame under the canvas. been making a personalized canvas using htv but i cover it with another thin canvas. i will surely try to make one for my craft room. great video tutorial. love it! Thank you! :D
Thank you 🙏🏽
I sure like your neat organized room
jean george thank you! This is part of my bedroom so I have to keep it neat 😂
Loved the comment about the pliers and pulling teeth!! LOL 😂
+CravNCraftN lol!! Thank you!! My grandparents are country I can just picture them at the dentist like that 😂😂😂
BESO Boutique School, well I loved it & got a good chuckle out of it! Thank you for brightening my day in more ways than one. 😂😂😂😂 I do want to say that I really enjoyed watching your tutorial. You are very informative where many I've started to watch don't even speak. Those I just shut off & move to the next one. I'll be looking for previous videos of yours & watching for new ones. Keep up the great work! God bless! 😊
+CravNCraftN omg you've brightened my day with this lovely comment!! Just knowing I helped explain the process to one person makes it so worth it :) this was actually my first video but there's more planned 🙏🏼💖
Nice job thanks I made my first reverse canvas by watching your video love it!
So glad you tried one! Thank you for the kind words!
hope to see more videos:)
Awesome video. Detailed and easy to understand. ❤❤❤
Thank you for the kind comment!
I wanted to make a suggestion on how to get it done faster, cheaper, and have total control of the dimensions. Instead of disassembling canvas frames a manual miter box and saw us like 10 bucks, then just buy small s4s boards and cut the 45° miters with the box, just don't use the big cheap framing saw that comes with the box, pick up a flush cut pull saw, about 8 inches long with fine teeth.
Alternatively if 80 or so bucks is worth it for more speed, a smallish powered miter saw, and with that you aren't stuck with only squares and rectangles you can do triangle frames or hexagons or octagon
Then just cut and staple canvas from a fabric store, gesso if needed.
This way takes a bit more money in gear to start but quickly overtakes in output speed and profit margin if you are doing it for selling
Jonathan D hi Jonathan thank you for your comments! You are right, that’s another way to do this 😊👍🏽 It would take considerably more space and resources than the average crafter might have at the beginning, but is definitely worth exploring if someone wants to do many of these 👍🏽
Found my affiliate mate ♡ thanks for the referrals! Love the video! Pinned and shared it :)
CleanCutCreative thank you 🤗
Great tutorial!
Thank you so much for the encouragement! 💖
AWESOME tutorial!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Great video!!!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video I'm a newbie and hope to see more
Thank you!
Very well done video.
Thank you for the kind comments!!
Thanks for the tutorial, Do you have one where you teach about hanging hardware, what can be used and how to apply it .
Not yet! I'll do another one
love it!
Thank you for the kind comment
Great job that looks good.
+cindy arocha thanks for checking it out!! More tutorials coming soon 🙏🏼💖
Just found your video. You do a great job. I hope you do more. Thanks.
Thank you 🙏🏽 I plan on doing more soon
So to answer the question of what IS a reverse canvas, it's putting a design of some kind on the canvas and then putting the canvas on the reverse side of the frame? Pretty neat idea. You could also have put that same design on the front of the canvas without the hassle of removing staples, but you wouldn't have the frame effect. You would only need a support of some kind behind it when pressing the material to it.
Hi there! Yes, you are right, you could put this on the canvas itself, but in my experience, it can get stretched or misshapen when trying to press. Also, many people like this budget friendly way to get a frame without having to do any woodworking 😊 Hope you liked the video, thank you for your comment ❤️👍🏽
Excellent!!! Thank Youuuuuu!!!
🤗🤗🤗
I loved this video. What heat press do you have??
Melissa Cowell hi! Thank you for the kind comment. The heat press is linked in the video description for you 🙏🏽
Where did you get the sorry about the mess file? Great tutorial. Love all the details and tips. Great for a newbie like me. Thank you!
Hi there :) Here is the link to the mess file: bit.ly/2nkhihd (sorry that took so long, I couldn't see a bunch of comments!)
I love this!!!
Thank you for your kind comment
Thank you for staple removal. I think without it I would have not made it
S. Fergu I completely understand!! Me too lol! You’re welcome 😊
What if you don't have a heat press!! How about an iron? What heat setting should you put it at? Loved the video!! We have some weddings coming up in May!! I can see shower gifts!!!!
You can definitely do this with an iron but you'll want to expirement with the heat settings & how long you press because it can melt the canvas.
Thanks for the video! May i know what is the name of the pink you used on the frame? Thanks! ❤️
This is a very good video thank you
Thank you for the kind comment!
Very nice, how much do you sell them for?
Please do more tutorials especially for preparing the frames and painting them.
Hi! I just got more frames today, I'll do another one 💖👍🏽
PS. It varies by size... For 8x8 I sell for $12 and 9x12 I sell for $18 at local craft shows. I haven't sold these online, mostly because I don't want to have to package and ship them.
Thank you for the video this really helped. Did my first reversed canvas last night. Turned out great. Weird question though...where did you get your staple gun?!
Tracy Adams I got it from Home Depot!
I love how clean the back of your canvas is! Curious.. how much would you sell that sized canvas for? What about a 12x24 inch with 1 color? I’d really appreciate your feedback! Again, great tutorial !
Hi! Thank you for the kind comment. I would sell a 9x12 for $15 in my area (South Florida). for a 12x24 somewhere between $18-$25 depending on the design. Hope this helps!
thank u for sharing it
My pleasure!
wonderful! you are a natural. Great tutorial and final product!
Hi Sherrie! Thank you for the kind words and encouragement!
Great video! I’m going to purchase that birth stat along with a million others. I hope you get credit for it! Your stapler you recommend is no longer available. You might want to suggest another one!
simplyjudy thank you!! I’ll revise that link
Hi i just came across ur video it was brilliant, will definitely give this a go, just wanted to know the vinyl wall rack u have and the other plastic thing u have on the wall to put stuff in wats the best name for them and wer can u purchase them, ur set up looks so nice n tidy
Hi - Thanks for kind your comment, I appreciate it! The hanging bar and cups are from Ikea but unfortunately they don't sell them anymore.
Great video! Where did you get your plastic storage bins above your cutting mat?
Hi Cathy! I think you're talking about the ones that look like little buckets right? Those came from Ikea and they hang on a bar also purchased from Ikea.. hope that helps & thanks for watching! 👍🏽😁
What brand heat press do you have?
Hi 🙋🏻♀️ it's linked in the video description 🙏🏽
Great video, thanks for the information! Can I ask what fonts you used for the birth dates (what a difference a day makes) sign? Thanks!
Hi yes it's Bebas, thanks for checking it out!
Hi...Thanks so much for this informative video..I plan on doing a reverse canvas but I wanted to use 651 vinyl! Have you used this in addition to the HTV? Can it be done? Do I have to seal it or will the 651 just stick to the canvas? Thanks
Hi there! No, you don't have to seal 651, and you can certainly use it (its cheaper!) - I have just found it more difficult to weed 651 with intricate designs. I may do a tutorial in the future showing how to make that process easier. Also, one of my tricks is to still press the 651 on the canvas to help it stick better, very briefly! (shhhh that's our little secret! LOL) *Another video coming soon* Haha
Great tutorial! I was wondering, what heat press do you have? Do you love it? And where did you get it?
Hi Melissa! I DO love my heat press lol. I think everyone in our house rolls their eyes when they hear me turn it on (it beeps) 😂. There's a link to it in my video description and it's from Amazon.
BESO Boutique School thank you so much!
Great video! After you sized the SVG, how did you get the red outline to show up when you sent it to Send? I’ve only worked with an SVG once, and I could not get the redline to show up. I had to choose the setting after simple at the top. Thank you!
Cheryl Spano hi 👋🏽 on the cut screen you select the whole area and choose cut, your cut lines will turn red
Yup, that worked, thanks! What is the difference between "cut" and "cut edge"?
Cheryl Spano cut edge will just cut an outline , it’s perfect for cutting stickers or other print and cut designs 👍🏽
Thank you! I hope you do more tutorials, you are so good at it!
Thanks for the tutorial.... where is your heat press from? My is dying😭 and looking for a new one.
Oh no! Thanks for your question, I have a link to my heat press in the description above 👍🏽💖
Weird question. I saw the small while plastic boxes hanging on your wall, where do you get them? Thank you! Great canvases!
Thank you! They are from Ikea, I think the kitchen storage area 💖
Thanks! I found them on their site
Where did you buy your organizer for vinyl?? 👀👀👀
Hi there :) Its a grocery bag holder from Ikea :)
MyCraftySpace I found some on Amazon!! I was determined to find them☺️
Excellent video! What brand is that heat press? I love it!
Hi, the heat press is this one: www.amazon.com/dp/B01NAI5ZF2/?tag=besoboutique-20
What is the mat you have on your work space?
Deborah Girling it’s a fiskars cutting mat from Joann’s 💕
Do you have the link for the stain? The one listed goes to the canvas. Thank you
Thank you so much for the heads up! I've corrected the video and here is the right link: amzn.to/2tGgqGA
I watched your video quite a few times as I am starting my first reverse canvas (and quite nervous I will mess it up!) did you remove the staples from the front of the frame as well? and do you press on the front side or back side of the canvas (is there a difference in pressing?)
Hi there! In my experience, the only difference is the way the canvas looks (when pressing on the front or back). The front is definitely shinier, the back is more of a cloth look. I press on the front side very briefly. I don't remove the staples on the front, I don't mind the way they look. :)
What font did you use for 'sorry about this mess....' canvas? Loved your tutorial 💖
Hi there :) Its actually a template, here is the link: bit.ly/2nkhihd
You don’t fill in those tacky little hole on the corners? Especially when selling?
Jennifer Taylor No I don’t.. I find that once it’s painted it’s barely noticeable and I’ve never had anyone comment on it. With that said, I have seen some people fill it with wood filler then paint over it so there’s always that option.
hii do you wont to tall me the app for design?
Hi - everything is linked in my video description :)
what is the mat called that you are cutting on and where do I find one?
Hi there! This is the mat I use, they sell various sizes: amzn.to/2D0NZGt
May I ask where you got your heat press from , really love your crafting space 🙃
Hi :) Thanks for your lovely comment! I'm super limited on space so this is a long cube shelf from Ikea LOL... My heat press is this one: amzn.to/2ZdvS83 .. However, I have not used the extra attachments, so I would probably buy this one if I did it over again: amzn.to/2XdIDxx
Don't own a heating station. Can use the iron to do this project?
Hi! Yes you can, just press for a few seconds over the text, you can use a pillowcase or pressing cloth to protect the canvas
I have a heat press never used hope I can find paper work
Let me know if I can help :)
Do you have links to the vinyl, press, cutter and program?
Hi! Yes the links are in the video description but I do need to refresh one because the staple remover isn’t available at Home Depot anymore.
Here are the links for you: Cameo 3: amzn.to/2DQPwfe
Heat Press: amzn.to/2FzLpVk Thank you again for your comment!
Where did you get your cutting mat????
Hi, it's from Joann fabrics, brand is Fiskars but here is the same one on Amazon www.amazon.com/dp/B000YZASYO/?tag=besoboutique-20
Under your ikea bag holders where you store your vinyl rolls, what is that amazing rod with the containers to hold misc. ?? I neeeeeed.
watched a lil further. it's where you pulled out the sponge paint brush when speaking about the pink chalk paint.
Hiiiii! That is also from Ikea!! Super cheap I'll look up the name for you.
Would you buy the same heat press again? I am shopping for a swing away.
Absolutely! Its been a workhorse
How do you attach the cups to the rod?
Collette Gay it just hooks on 👍🏽
Oops...I meant how do you attach the rod to the wall?
Collette Gay they go on with small screws, drywall screws. Very simple. Not sure if Ikea sells them anymore though 😩
Whip Up Some Joy thank you
I'm only 8 minutes in...You are making me nervous cutting like that!!! I'm a quilter and we cut fabric this way, but we would put the ruler on the left so you aren't crossing your arms. Be safe!!!
Karyn West thanks for the tip!
I get u dont do instructional videos...but damn that was a long video lol.
Thanks for your comments! 👍🏽 Hopefully at least some of the tips help with your next project 🎉
