This is another of my Retreat classes - a "Wear Your Art then Frame It". It was one of those fun, messy classes! We started with a 5"x7" pre-stretched canvas, tore up a piece of pretty paper, and covered the frame with it using wallpaper paste.
The trick was to push a piece of wire through the canvas - on the front, heat the ends until they melt and bead up, while the back forms the hanging loop. It was covered with paper and paste to secure it in place. Then, you have a way to hang up a piece of artwork or jewelry, allowing you to take it off and wear it, then put it back easily.
We painted on the top of the frame, but you could decorate it in any way you want.
