When choosing how to hang your canvas prints there are several options available. Using canvas frames with or without glass is the traditional and more expensive method, whereas the gallery wrap method is a more modern and less expensive option. If you choose the gallery wrap method for your stretched canvas you’ll have several options for stretcher bars. 

First in the Breathing Color stretcher bar lineup is Easy Wrappe Pro and Easy Wrappe Standard. These are the easiest to use stretcher bars for canvas. They are made from high quality bass wood and have an adhesive strip that allows you to easily stretch your canvas without stretcher pliers. These high quality canvas stretcher frames are great for beginners but are more expensive than other options like pre notched or full length stretcher bars.

Second are pre notched canvas stretcher bars. These are typically the best option for most people. The pre-notched corners allow you to fit the stretcher bar frame together without having to use a v-nailer or a miter saw to cut them to size. You will still need to use the traditional canvas stretching method which requires canvas stretcher pliers and a staple gun to use these pre notched canvas stretching bars effectively. This type of stretcher bar is the best balance between cost and ease of use. 

Lastly we have Stretcher Bar Moulding which are the low cost, high volume option for a canvas stretcher bar. If you are stretching a lot of canvas and are able to cut, and join wood then this type of stretcher frame is for you. These typically 9.5 foot long sticks are cut into the required sizes on site using a miter saw and assembled using a v-nailer. This method requires more equipment than our other options but if you have the ability it is the least expensive way to create a quality stretcher frame. These full length canvas stretch bars are shipped on a wooden pallet via freight truck so ordering in high enough quantities to make the shipping cost worthwhile is necessary.
