(1) 18" x 22" piece of cotton fabric
(1) 14" x 18" Artist canvas (or smaller size)
6 yards of 3/8" wide ribbon
Decorative Brads
Staple gun or Hot melt glue gun

These boards are great for storing bows, notes, photos and are easy to make!Directions:
- Fabric should have at least a 2" clearance to wrap the canvas board
- Lay fabric down...wrong side up
- Place top of canvas board face down on wrong side of fabric
- Bring fabric up over the sides and tuck underneath and use a staple gun or glue gun to secure
- Add the ribbon in a basket weave pattern. Cut the ribbon after attaching it to the board. Start at one corner and work across to the opposite corner. Space the ribbon equally apart ( approx. 5 1/2"). Secure to backside of the canvas using the staple gun or Hot melt glue gun.
- Repeat the same procedure with the other corner.
- Finish by punching a little hole in canvas and insert brads at the intersections of the ribbon.
- To add embellishments to the brads, just dab a little glue on top of brad and then decorate as desired.
