Upcycle canvases into custom home decor, without buying new supplies. Learn how to take an old canvas, fabric, or even a thrifted shirt and transform it into a one-of-a-kind sign. Create something that fits your style… No two projects will look the same, and that’s the fun of it.

This Project can be made with the Explore Series, Maker Series, Silhoutte, Venture, Romeo, Juliet, Joy, Joy Xtra, Joy 2
