Magazine Clippings and a Rooster Stencil Became Kitchen Art on Canvas

I made a kitchen canvas with magazine clippings, Mod Podge, and a rooster stencil. Using pictures I already had kept the project inexpensive and let me choose images connected to the room.

Choose kitchen-related magazine images

I cut the images from Elle Decor magazine, choosing kitchen-related pictures for the collage. Those clippings became the background of the canvas.

Apply Mod Podge and let it dry

After attaching the images with Mod Podge, I let the canvas dry for about an hour. Then I lightly stenciled the rooster over the collage.

Display the finished canvas

I placed the finished piece in what I called my happy corner of the kitchen. The magazine background and lightly applied stencil gave it a mix of printed images and painted detail.

For another canvas made with paper pieces, see the wine-label canvas art. The book-page JOY letters use Mod Podge on a different surface.
