NAPKIN WALL ART

Napkin Wall Art

These are cloth napkins purchased from Crate & Barrel stretched over a frame.  I purchased stretcher-bars to make the frame (the same kind used by artists to stretch canvas, so they are made for the purpose of attaching fabric).  I purchased them from www.frenchcanvas.com.  These are put together with a rubber mallet (no hardware required).  I used a staple gun to attach the fabric. Just be careful with the corners.  Neat corners will make or break the final look of these types of projects.

About the stretcher-bars:  these are ideal because they can be ordered in any size, are relatively inexpensive, are put together with a rubber mallet (no hardware), are made for the purpose of attaching fabric, and are lightweight and easy to hang.  I have used stretcher bars from this same source for a number of other types of projects.

See ABSTRACT BIRCH FOREST and POTATOE SACK WALL ART for similar projects.
