On the 5th Day of Christmas

my true love made for me some holiday subway art.  

I am always looking for different items to be used as seasonal decoration for the mantle.  That is why I was excited to find all kinds of free, printable, subway art pages through Pinterest.  There are so many different themes to choose from and so many varieties for each season.  You can find the one I made and used for the fall here.

There were so many options for Christmas and even more for "winter" themes for January & February.  Here are a few that I liked and may use another year:

Materials:

8x10 canvas (Michael's)

Mod Podge

Paint brush

Computer & Printer 

Card stock

Tutorial: 

These are so easy to make and do not take very long at all.  First find a printable that you would like to use.  Then size it slightly smaller than 8x10 (I use 7.75x9.75).  Then print onto plain card stock.  I used regular printer paper for the one on the left and it came out fine.  The paper tends to bubble a little more than the card stock does. 

The Subway Art Printables I chose

Next spread a thin layer (do not want too much) of Mod Podge onto the canvas. 

Place the card stock on top of the canvas and paint another thin coat of Mod Podge on top to seal it onto the canvas.  A second coat can be done, but it is not necessary.  Then hang or place on the mantle for decor.
