DIY Fall Acorn Art on Burlap Canvas with Mod Podge and Embroidery
We have been smitten with burlap canvases for a while. I love the texture and rustic quality. I really wanted to make some fall art with with mixed elements that wasn’t fussy or over done. The acorns are cut from fabric and were applied with Mod Podge. The stitching was done with yarn and it was super easy to stitch through the canvas.
What you will need
Burlap canvas, Fabric scraps, Scissors, Foam paintbrush, Mod Podge, Sharpie Marker, Yarn, Needle
Using a sharpie (I like to use one that matches my yarn color), write the word FALL. Using Yarn, embroidery the letters.
Cut fabric scraps into an acorn shape. Try using contrast fabrics for the top and bottom.
Apply a thick coat of Mod Podge to the back of the acorn fabric.
Position onto the burlap canvas.
Smooth the fabric with your fingers.
Top-coat the fabric with a thick layer of Mod Podge.
Allow to dry.
Using the same yarn, free form stitch through the canvas.
Make swirl patterns and running stitch patterns.
Happy Fall!!
