Painters canvas drop cloth is one of my most favorite materials to use when I am working on home decor projects. You may wonder why I love it so much. Basically, its for its versatility. There are so many ways to transform this material. Over the years I have created many projects. I thought it would be a great idea to share what I have done in the past and I have 8 super easy painters canvas drop cloth project ideas that anyone can do!
Sometimes I get an idea in my head about a project I want to do, and often times it involves some type of fabric. I live in a small town where we do not have access to stores where I might be able to purchase anything I might need. Because of this, I have to be creative and flexible when I am working on a project, especially if it is a spur of the moment project. So, I have to dip into my project stashes at my home. And something I always have in my stash is painters canvas drop cloth.
The first thing you want to do before using drop cloths for your next project, read this post about how to choose the right dropcloth for your project.
I have used my painters canvas drop cloth for so many different projects, that I feel like it has become second nature to use it whenever I am looking for material for a project. The color and texture of the painters canvas drop cloth allows itself to be very versatile in my home, which centers around a more neutral pallet. However, if you keep reading, you will see that it can be used in a more colorful environment and transform into practically anything.

Hello- great website! I wanted to ask you if you have ever used a drop cloth for a couch slip cover? If so, what weight did you use and was it the same brand featured in your pieces online? Any other recommendations will also be GREATLY appreciated. I have a 7 foot couch and so I’m finding the fabric to be prohibitively expensive for a summer slipcover. Thank you

I have not used it as a slip cover but there’s not reason why not. I would use a heavier weight one for that though.
