Plastic Canvas Calendar Craft

 

 

A long time ago, my very crafty Grandma Lucy made a plas­tic can­vas cal­en­dar for me to match my room decor at that time. My grandmother’s crafts will show up numer­ous times on this site as she had a mul­ti­tude of crafts that she enjoyed mak­ing. This cal­en­dar was made using two large sheets of white plas­tic can­vas and blue plas­tic can­vas was used for the month titles, week­day titles and num­bered days. She used dark blue yarn for all the stitch­ing. She included two lit­tle plas­tic bears as a dec­o­ra­tion at the top right cor­ner because I was a lit­tle girl at the time she made this, how­ever, my tastes have changed over the years and since they were get­ting quite old, I have changed the dec­o­ra­tions to var­i­ous forms of stars which match the blue plas­tic can­vas parts of the cal­en­dar. If you are inter­ested in plas­tic can­vas projects, visit All­Crafts for numer­ous projects and free pat­terns. Also, AOK Cor­ral Craft and Gift Bazaar has some nifty how-to instruc­tions for get­ting started with plas­tic can­vas crafts.
