DIY Christmas Decor Using an Old Canvas

This week I kicked off with some Christ­mas craft­ing. Every Mon­day I go LIVE on Face­book to share a fun makeover idea and this week DIY Christ­mas decor is just what I need­ed to get the week started!

I grabbed a can­vas for $1.99 at the local Good­will, removed the dat­ed can­vas image to reveal a cute, chunky wood­en frame. You can see what this frame looked like before on the Face­book replay.

After remov­ing the can­vas I sim­ply stained the frame, attached some super cute pol­ka dot rib­bon, embell­ished with some sim­ple green picks from Wal­mart and thid DIY Christ­mas decor was complete!

I found this cute red and white pol­ka dot rib­bon as Wal­mart! Paired with raf­fia it made the CUTEST lit­tle bow for the top of this rus­tic lit­tle present.

This Rib­bon and Raf­fia or what I like to call the “R+R Bow” set the entire look of this DIY apart! I think is the per­fect com­bi­na­tion of messy and sim­ple at the same time! I have not made an offi­cial tuto­r­i­al for the bow but I think it’s time! Stay tuned for this new tuto­r­i­al com­ing to the blog next week!

In addi­tion to the sweet pol­ka dot bow, I am lov­ing this styled with some of my favorite basic pieces for vignettes and styling.
