LARGE WALL ART DIY: Make this Shower Curtain Canvas Art DIY for *CHEAP* [UNDER $20!]

[@StephHooper]

I made this! I switched the wood so that the short sides were against the wall, so it looks like a thicker canvas. It made it easier to screw together. I hung it with eye screws and wire. Mainly because I was hanging it on a two-story wall and it was hard to go on a ladder and get three screws level. I added command strips to the bottom. It helps keep it against the wall and to keep it level. I also used L brackets and put in 2 supports made of the same material as the frame. They were added horizontally, so it divided the square into thirds to keep it from warping or losing shape over time. The supports make it more sturdy and handled a move across the country. I originally used the frame with a different shower curtain. When I wanted to change the decore, I removed the shower curtain and the frame was still in perfect shape to put on something new.

I wish you made a video or I would love to see a picture of the frame

[@mrjermash]

I did this yesterday, and I love it! The shower curtain in the video is 100% cotton (based on the linked info), and the one I picked was 100% polyester. Still worked great, but the frame is slightly visible through the curtain, so it’s worth keeping in mind for anyone else deciding on shower curtains. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@keeshabu]

Hello, I want to make this and my curtain is also Polyester. Would it help if I was to put some type of board behind it? Also what color did you use? Mine is white and grey marble.

[@mrjermash]

@@keeshabu mine has white and grey stripes with large pink roses on it. If I was to redo it, I think I would just paint the front of the frame white before putting the shower curtain on it. The white might still be slightly visible through the fabric, but I think it would look a little nicer that way.

[@keeshabu]

@@mrjermash gotcha. Thanks for the info!

[@emilys9365]

I added a cheap white sheet behind the shower curtain and stapled them to the frame at the same time. It helped a lot! No more see through fabric.

[@mrjermash]

@@emilys9365 Ooh great idea!

[@lisaschreiber2893]

while I have seen shower curtain art for years, I have never seen anyone stitch it to give a 3d effect... brilliant!!

[@oasisannie]

It’s the touches of embroidery that make this amazing! (Using the different textures of yarn makes it even better.) Gorgeous!

[@morana15]

Love the idea! Hack to add to your collection. Heard it from an amazing Toronto artist who I got a piece from years ago on how to hang canvases to drywall Even for something that large as you r describing - just use push pins. Yeap, the same ones that people used to pin papers to a cork board or a cubicle. Their design makes it perfect for canvas hanging. I didn't believe her at first as her piece seemed pretty heavy.. 10 years later - it haven't moved at all. .for 4' × 5' framed painting. 5 push pins. That's all. No nails, no fuss. Wouldn't work with concrete / brick /stone walls though Loved this segment & energy. :) thank u!

[@tabashrafi9373]

The ONLY reason I knew it was a shower curtain is because I saw it on Target’s website. I thought it was such a pretty print but NEVER would I have ever thought to make a canvas picture out of it. It looks BEAUTIFUL & had I not known it was a shower curtain I would not have believed it. It looks AMAZING!!! Thank you for such a great idea!!!

[@meganlawson4737]

Pocket hole tutorial please! 🙏🏼💞

[@bundlewade]

When she said, if you are feeling lost.... I felt like she was talking to me!

[@Retiree1992]

Yes a pocket hole tutorial. Love this. Shower curtains are so underrated. I have a outer shower curtain material type that had the red truck with Christmas tree. It has a nice red buffalo check. No one could believe it. It cost me $10 to make two center panels for two front windows. I cut in half and sew the edges.

[@laurice8056]

OMG I LOVE this idea & look! Fabric paint with a metallic, glitter, or frosty finish would make a nice little accent on some of the design too. Some of the remaining shower curtain could be made into covers for toss pillows too. Command hooks made for mirrors or frames can be used to hang the canvas and save your walls. Thanks again for sharing 🙏

[@miagoodson372]

I just did my first shower curtain wall art canvas thanks to your brilliant diy tutorial! So simple to do, and it looks fantastic!!

[@crazycreativegrandmaproduc779]

Cara, you’re an absolute sweetheart! Pocket hole tutorial please and keep the fresh ideas!

[@jannabrown386]

Perfect for what I need and art for the wall doesn’t fit my budget right now. A similar picture I looked at was almost 200.00 and I knew that wasn’t happening. I plan this for behind the couch. Thank you, this is the best DIY I ever ran across. Love the idea.

[@karynwhite2207]

I just saw this on tic tok and had to checkout the tutorial, I love it and I love that you used a shower curtain, so clever :)

[@sherriolson3227]

I just found your channel yesterday and am in love!!! I’ve used shower curtains for everything. Shower curtains are wonderful for custom dog bed covers and kennel covers. Outdoor rugs. And this year I used shower curtains as the lining for my hanging outdoor baskets. I never had such gorgeous baskets ever.

[@teresacarle294]

🎉Great ideas. Always seem to find nice shower curtains🚿 on the cheap. Using a plastic one as a planter🌱 liner is cool too. 👩‍💻Once saw a blog tutorial where they used the pine IKEA INGO table to conceal an unsightly kennel for a big dog. Once they tucked the table in a corner, they added a tension rods on the interior of two sides. It made the panels removable to wash. It gave the dog a cosy nook while concealing the metal cage. Although they had brackets on the entry side on each leg that would allow the curtain to swag back when the pooch🐶 was inside. 📚The top of the table was cleverly styled like a library console with propped layers of large wall art along the back, a large statement lamp in the corner, stacks of charming coffee table books, & objets d' art. The surface was also used as a sideboard to serve buffet food when needed. 🎉 Someone could tuck two smaller kennels under something similar too.🕵️‍♀️It adds structure while keeping a hidden secret. ☮💛🌼🦋

[@perrismcknight3067]

Thank you for being willing to giving manual directions! I need them.

[@dawnaskey4975]

I love the idea of adding embroidery. I am working on curtains, using sheets. Adding yarn via embroidery will be a wonderful bump up!

[@reginal.thomas3709]

Oh thank God for the power-tool free tutorial 😅 this is such a great idea! Thank you for sharing!

[@caranewhart]

Haha yes!! There was a time not too long ago when I was terrified to use a saw but still wanted to diy cool big things so I got you 🙌

[@mhn...]

Hi Cara!Well done!Thanks for sharing the idea and the how to!All the best of success on your other projects

[@lindaowens9865]

Amazingly cheap, easy art!!

[@christinaedsall9635]

I have had two of these shower curtains for over a year because I love them so much but didn't know what to do with them. I'm picking up my wood now!

[@sheethaladepu7063]

Loved the diy , can you please tell how the embroidery is done ?That texture is amazing.

Awesome video Cara! I am going to use this idea on a particular wall that will make a great statement in our entry hall. I still need to convince my husband to take down the pretty, but "it's time" to go more modern and jazz it up. Will let you know how this goes!

[@caranewhart]

Awe thank you!! 😘😘😘

[@1mezrahi187]

Wow just beautiful 🤩

[@keeshabu]

Hi, I finally found the courage to make this but ran into a small problem. Most shower curtains in stores are 70"x72". I followed your measurements exactly and brought everything home and my shower curtain was too small. No biggie, I will just have them cut it again. I will end up painting the wood because I can see it showing through the fabric. I can't wait to finish this. Thanks for the video!!

[@beachwannabe]

OG, I love it!

[@pennyhaase744]

This is GENIOUS !!

[@Mongo-ui1ll]

[@poojarana2118]

Beautiful Art ❤️ Love your work 👍🤗

[@elizabethpolhemus4230]

Such a cool idea! Thinking I might turn my old shower curtain into a headboard

[@wandalong871]

This is beautiful! I’ve been wanting something very similar. Now just have to find the right shower curtain. I have no idea how I would make the pocket holes without buying a bunch of tools. I think I have the wood already. Hubby bought 1 x 2s but I needed 1 x 1s for my garden project. I have a circular saw, but that’s about the extent of it. Of course we have have hammers and hand saws and I might be able to find a miter box, just mind have to find help using it. I want to make this now! Thank you for the inspiration and tutorial.

[@evecurrin2519]

Low key👏🏼awesome job!

[@Monica-zz7lh]

O M G i'll convince my hubby to let me (us) do it!! Itching to refresh our home

[@caranewhart]

Yes!! Should be relatively easy cause it’s cheap right?! Can’t wait to see what yours looks like?

[@laracondesso5340]

Great idea.

[@mirandab5086]

Wow. Good job

[@diybronwynsmith263]

Awesome 😎

[@robbendicott-powers1494]

I have always been super traditional.......I used to design very traditional furniture and accessory stores for a living and was in charge of all merchandising.............that said...i cannot believe I admit this method of hanging that I just love......nails exposed at ceiling height but nailed into the wall........wire.......yes picture wire.....twisted to make a loop or doubled depending on weight of artwork of object dAYA art on the wall lol.........and a picture hanger on the back of the picture or artwork....very raw....very industrial ......art exhibit looking.

[@caranewhart]

Ooh that sounds like a cool method! I'm all here for raw and industrial vibes. Maybe I can try that with an upcoming piece!

[@lorettasjazzyartz1741]

Omg! Awesome

[@moshirley2414]

Pocket frame. Also using a canvas pliers makes life so much easier. 🤗
