Reverse canvas is a sign making technique and everyone seems to have their own little twist. I like shortcuts (and coupons) so in this beginners reverse canvas tutorial I'm going to show you what I've found to be the fastest and easiest way to make reverse canvases..and where to find the best designs for them!

The first thing that you'll want to do is grab a stretched canvas....or a pack of them!

Use an exacto or craft knife to cut the canvas along the back. You want to cut outside the staples to remove the canvas from the wood frame.

Don't worry about the edges of the canvas folding up - they will end up being cut off anyway.

OPTIONAL but Recommended Step: Measure the inside of the frame and take those dimensions into Silhouette Studio to create a box so you can get an idea of how large your design should be to fit.

I'm using a design from So Fontsy. This step to scale or size the design will work though with whatever design you're using.
