Mini Floral Canvases

You can get your mom flowers for Mother's Day, but that would be boring. Instead, make her Mini Floral Canvases from Tiffany Windsor - no water required! Homemade Mother's Day crafts are a fun and inexpensive way to show how much you care.

  6. Carefully place one layer of the paper towel into the glue. Squeeze more Collage Pauge over paper towel and use finger to move around. Keep your surface of the paper towel very moist with Collage Pauge. This will keep the paper towel from tearing.Once you have glued the paper towel to the front of the canvas, add Collage Pauge to the side of the canvas and glue the paper towel in place, cutting excess paper towel to create clean corners and edges. Let glue dry completely.
