DIY Tapestry into Canvas frames
Welcome to my channel and thank you for watching my first ever DIY video! I promise my editing skills will improve with time! Stay tuned for future videos as I piece together my new home!
For this video I included a list of the products I used:
- Amazon Tapestry ($15) 59”x82.6”
- 2”x1”x8’ wood for the frame, purchased six for my tapestry, and cut to give me (8) 16” pieces and (8) 50” pieces after cutting to size. Please adjust to fit your preferred tapestry! I used a table saw to cut my wood but Lowes does offer a wood cutting area, however they charge after two cuts!
- 1 ½ inch screws
Tools Needed:
Tape measure
Drill
Staple gun and staples
Scissors
Hammer (optional)

    Good job. You made the video. I was the one watching it. In the natural order of things you're the leader.

    I want to turn a throw blanket into a tapestry with a frame. Any advice?

    Great DIY, thanks! I’m thinking about doing this but just framing the whole tapestry as a canvas. I hope it works out for me!

    Thank you for the step by step details. I have a patterned cloth that I want to make into a wall picture. Your example should work out great!

    I can only find a certain piece of art as a tapestry...so this was very helpful! Thank you!

  • @bayleyseymour4758

    This is so cool! Do you think it would be doable with a regular stapler? Or would I need the kind you have in the video?

  • @SNiiFiinPAiiNT
    @SNiiFiinPAiiNT 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    With the tapestry being so thin how does the tension treat the fabric in time bc of the staples? Does it start to rip/ tear ? I guess if it does that’s not a very bad thing since these things are so affordable 🤘

    Nice job...was just thinking to do the same thing as you did 😃

  • @cameranmanner4701

    your alignment looks spot on when setting all the panels together. So how do you know how to align the tapestry when stapling to frame? Also I notice the height of each panel seems tall. how come you did not add a center support?

    • @leighabenson4892
      @leighabenson4892 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Cameran Manner I just made sure I pulled the same amount when stapling to keep the alignment. I also would staple and check to make sure they lined up. They were pretty tall, I probably could of added a support beam however I didn’t have a problem without them here! I made an even large one recently and did add beams tho!

    • @SNiiFiinPAiiNT
      @SNiiFiinPAiiNT 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Leigha DeGrace could you kindly explain how not doing this center panel thing could negatively impact your result / how the piece over time may be effected ?

    • @SNiiFiinPAiiNT
      @SNiiFiinPAiiNT 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m doing a pretty huge tapestry, i think the one I found was about 4 feet wide 6 feet down and this video inspired me to start smaller first of all, but also to look into center piece / support beams 👍Ty for the helpful comments !

    If you pre drill pilot holes, you're less likely to split your frames.

      Katt’s Craziness I’ve noticed this and have started doing it with my recent projects! I appreciate the help! 😊

    I was literally going to do this with the same exact tapestry except make it into one big frame😂

    • @leighabenson4892
      @leighabenson4892 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mara Waters I’ve done one of those two! Same concept! I love them, so much cheaper than spending hundreds on huge frames!

    Great job Leigha, thank you. You have inspired me to do my own fabric frame, rather than to pay for it to be done. Great instructional video. 😊
