​I wanted to take  this review a step further. I had plans from the time she asked me to review the product until I received it. I placed the order on September 2, 2018 and received it September 12, 2018. I placed the order just like any other customer on the website so they did not know which product would be mine. Shipping times may vary with different product, quantities and locations.

I wanted to do something special with this canvas, with some Iron on foil vinyl. I was full of anticipation waiting until it came. Literally I was expecting an artist canvas like I get at the hobby store with no backing etc. I was afraid I would not be able to use the canvas or my project. 

I was in awe of what I actually received.  The  richness of the colors and  the craftsmanship are fantastic.   The canvas is solid on top and on the back!  This made it super easy to do my project without  finding ways to support it from behind the canvas!  I did hold my breath for fear it would ruin the gorgeous piece. 

I am happy to report that it held up awesomely!  I used Iron on foil and a Cricut EasyPress® at 260 degrees for 45 seconds without any damage to the canvas at all.
I do not recommend this if you have no experience with putting iron on onto canvas, practice first. If you are looking to add something like this to a crafting booth or  store, Canvas Factory passed the test with flying colors.

Please feel free to ask me any questions you might have about the ironing on of the foil. All other canvas questions should be directed to Canvas Factory.

Did you know there are over 6500 Dollar Tree** stores nationwide?​ We have all shopped there for  stuffed animals to use our iron on materials. We also scour the isles for glass products to etch or add vinyl to.  We look over the craft isle for ribbons and think what can I use that on? School starting? Yes, we go crazy for canvas and plastic pencil cases and other gear!  You know we do this!

But have you ever run so short on time making that gift, you totally run out of time to make the card and the envelope?  Oops! Yes, I admit, I have been there too!

Dollar Tree has  the solution for times just like those. The card maker in me is always reluctant! However, when I am overwhelmed with projects I simply just don't need another project! Maybe you are more into creating the gift and making cards just isn't your thing! 

The solution is finally here! Starting today, August 30, 2018, every Dollar Tree store nationwide will carry Expressions from Hallmark! Yes, Hallmark Expressions for 1.00! They will also carry Heartline, a Hallmark© company! 2 for 1.00! Yes, I said that! 50 cents for a Heartline card by a Hallmark© company! 

These  cards are of great quality, they are not flimsy and the envelopes are embossed with Hallmark© as we know it.  I know I can totally rock these cards to go with any gift I make! You will have hundreds of cards to choose from. Now you can celebrate the moments with your family and friends without wrecking the budget! 

Also featured at select stores will be Joyfully Yours, a Dayspring© company. Joyfully Yours let’s family and friends express their faith on holidays and special occasions to celebrate all moments big and small!

Pick up a few to keep on hand. They have glitter, foils, embossing and plain for any occasion. Oh and Disney© cards too!  We have to have glitter, foil and Disney options right!
