Tiffany & Co Inspired Gift Box Wall Art- The Finished Canvas

Hi everyone! This is the last post in my Tiffany & Co inspired gift box wall art. You can read more about how I made the canvas here and here.

In this post, I will show how the finished canvas looks like and what I think of it.

Here is what the finished canvas looks like…

Overall, I like how it turned out. I think the cornflower blue background is the perfect shade to complement the Tiffany blue glitter. Even though I like how it turned out, I had problems with the glue I used to apply the glitter on it. The glue clumped and didn’t lay flat when I applied it. Also, I didn’t apply an even layer of the glue. This caused parts of the glue to dry faster than other parts. I used Elmers Glue to glue the glitter on the canvas, which doesn’t normally act like this. I think I used an old glue and that’s why it acted this way.

Even though I am irritated by the glue clumps and how it looks, the glitter does not shed off the canvas. I knew Elmers Glue would hold the glitter better than other glues I own and, so far, I made the right decision. I just wish I watched the age of my glue and it’s consistency before I applied it on to the canvas.

 

That’s all for now! Thank you for reading!
