I ordered a canvas item on Etsy, it’s gorgeous, but I thought it was come stretched and blocked and ready to hang. Instead it came in a roll. I am in a remote area with only a Wal-Mart, no other stores, for a very limited time.
For your artsy creative types, what’s the most expedient way to get this able to be hung on the wall? Any supplies need to be ordered online.
You could buy a stretcher frame on Amazon but this looks much simpler:
You need a stretcher frame and a staple gun. What size is this canvas print? If possible, you could also get a blank canvas the size needed and just staple this print over that.
This!

JoAnn’s and MIchael’s have framing services, probably available online too. But I agree it would be easier to DIY it with a staple gun.
Stretcher and staple gun. It’s easy. I’m sure there are videos on youtube that you can watch.
I’m hours away from those stores, so am trying to find a way to do it myself. The orders are 33x18 & a 29x22 canvas.
I’ve been scrolling Amazon, but thus far not located the odd sizes. Anyone have a good other resource for those supplies? Staple gun, that’s no issue.
Can you message the seller and ask for advice? They may have a resource for framing supplies for their odd sized canvases.
That was the first thing I did, awaiting an answer
Both Jerry’s Artarama and Dick Blick carry stretchers in 1" increments, and have all the lengths you need in stock. You can order online.
Yes, you can order stretcher bars in any length. figure out if you want the design to wrap around the frame or line up with it
