Are you looking to get started with plastic canvas? This beginner’s shopping guide will provide information on all the materials you need to begin crafting with plastic canvas.
First and foremost, you will need to purchase some plastic canvas. This is a lightweight mesh fabric which is made of plastic, and it comes in a variety of colors and sizes. When selecting plastic canvas, look for sturdy material that will hold up to stitching and cutting. If possible, it is best to buy from a craft store or online retailer who specializes in plastic canvas.
Secondly, you will need to purchase threads or yarn for your project. Threads for plastic canvas are usually made of acrylic, cotton, or wool. When choosing a thread, consider what type of design you want to create. For example, if you are making a wall hanging you may want to use a thicker thread. A thinner thread may work better for a bookmark or card.
Thirdly, you will need to get some needles. Plastic canvas needles are short, blunt-tipped needles used for stitching on plastic canvas. They come in different sizes, so make sure to select the size that works best for your project.
Finally, you will need scissors to cut your plastic canvas. Specialty scissors are available for cutting plastic canvas, but you can also use regular scissors if you don't have any specialty ones.
Now you have all the materials you need to get started with plastic canvas! Have fun creating unique projects for yourself and others.
