I made a very simple piece of wall art the other day. I started with a typewriter graphic from The Graphics Fairy. I collect old typewriters, and was so happy to find a graphic that looked almost exactly like this one.
I flipped the image in Picasa by clicking Ctrl/Shift/H. This gives you the mirror image for iron-on transfers.

I copied the image onto Transfer paper in my inkjet printer. I cut it out very close to the edges of the printing.
I ironed it on. By ironing onto the burlap, the image did not come out as dark as I would've hoped. I know I could've used a different fabric to get a darker picture, but I think the burlap is neat.
I added some batting then the burlap.
I pulled the burlap tight and hot glued it to the back.
I then set it in the frame and it was done. It was such an easy and inexpensive project.
I had all of the supplies onhand, so that made it especially inexpensive. :)
Thanks so much for visiting!
