Helpful Hints:

• Most hardware stores will cut the wood for free. Also, you can look for scrape pieces of wood that can be purchase at a reduced price.
• I used a curtain that I found on a clearance table. The curtain served as a pre-measured piece of fabric and I created my wood frame using the curtain measurements. If you want to purchase from a fabric store just measure the fabric that you will have about 4-6 inches on each side of the TV. This will allow the TV to have polished look on the framed canvas.
• When stapling the fabric to the wood frame. I worked from side to side to ensure the fabric was fully stretched
