fabric panel wall decor
November 3, 2010 
Easy. Changeable. Pretty!
This wall decor diy has been on my list for too long. My favorite part is that when I get tired of the fabric/palette, I can easily swap out with new fabric. Simple tutorial below:
Supplies: // Stretcher bars // fabric
Tools: // Staples // level // hammer & nails // yardstick
Super simple instructions, connect stretcher bars, cut fabric to size and then staple to the backside. The cost was more than I expected, being around $65 for bars and fabric. I used 16"x32" stretcher bars, which is a prominent size wall display.
The results are great and make a huge difference in the room by creating a visual focal point. What do you think? Any suggestions to make it better?

love it. i recently just covered an old piece of framed art i had in my family room. I just popped the picture out of the frame. used hot glue to glue the fabric to the back side of the picture, that way the fabric will come right off if I want to go back to the old look or i can easily swap out fabric for a new look as well. it kept my cost down a little :)
Love it!! What a great idea!
I love how they turned out! Wondering where you got that fabric--could be perfect for my breakfast nook!
Love this! You're right -- so easy, and it makes such a big impact. Great fabric choice :)
