Embroidery, Yarn, or String Art<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Embroidery, cross-stitching, weaving, and the like are perfect framing projects for showing off your artistic skill. Not only is it fun and relaxing working on these pieces, but by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/framing-your-cross-stitch-art\/\">framing them<\/a> you get the satisfaction of exhibiting your craft to friends and family for years to come. Much like framing vintage wear, your hand-stitched art will be protected from dust, dirt, or any unwanted &#8220;grabby&#8221; hands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Framing also adds support to embroidery. By stretching the fabric taut, stitches won&#8217;t have any wiggle room to slip out over time. This also eliminates the slightly wrinkled appearance of the canvas. We recommend securing your canvas to your frame&#8217;s backing with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/accessories#framers-tape\">framer&#8217;s tape<\/a>, this will keep your work in pristine condition without harming the art or frame. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This age-old craft no matter how painstakingly detailed and time-consuming, deserves to be presented and preserved! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After all, you did spend like 20 hours cross-stitching that Unicorn.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/embroidery-horse-edited-700x700.jpg\" alt=\"DIY Wall Art Projects - Horse Embroidery Art Project Framed\" class=\"wp-image-15848\" style=\"width:700px;height:700px\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/embroidery-horse-edited-700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/embroidery-horse-edited-1280x1280.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/embroidery-horse-edited-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/embroidery-horse-edited-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/embroidery-horse-edited-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.frameiteasy.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/embroidery-horse-edited.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">DIY Wall Art Projects &#8211; Horse Embroidery Framed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"feeling-inspired-yet\">Feeling Inspired Yet?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now that we&#8217;ve filled your noggin with some ideas, the creative juices should be flowing.
