With all of the cute photo editing apps out there, we are so obsessed with our Instagram (@thesororitysecrets) photos and couldn't help but think they should be featured on more than just our Instagram account. How cool would that be to actually bring your Instagram photos from your phones to your home walls as a pretty piece of art? We have seen several renditions of this type of masterpiece so with some Modge Podge, paint brushes, a canvas, and our awesome Instagram photos, we decided to craft this up ourselves. In just a few quick steps, you can have an Instagram Canvas decorating your home!
Materials:
- Modge Podge Matte-Mat-Mate
- Paint brush
- Blank canvas (any size you prefer)
- Printed Instagram photos (photo paper preferred)
*You can find all of these materials at Michael's Craft Store.
Step 1: Print your photos on photo paper (this helps the Modge Podge to stick better). If you don't have photo paper, print the pictures straight from your computer to a piece of paper.
Step 2: Arrange your photos on the canvas until you find a layout that you love!
Step 3: Using your paintbrush, lift each photo one-by-one and coat the surface of the canvas with the Modge Podge.
Step 4: Press each photo into the canvas. For extra assurance it is on tight, add another coat of the Modge Podge to the picture (it will dry pretty quickly).
Masterpiece complete!
