Follow The Instructions Below
Step 1: Take inventory.
Each Paint With Diamonds Wooden Frame Stretcher Bar kit comes with:
- 4x Wooden Stretcher Bars
- 4x "U" Nails
- 4x Corner Wedges
Step 2: Lay your canvas out face down on a smooth, clean, flat surface. Lay out each Stretcher Bar along the edges of the canvas.
Make sure each stretcher bar is flush up against the edge of the painting! Otherwise your final product might not come together well.
Also take note that the skinny (narrow) half of each stretcher bar should be facing inward.
Step 3: Use tape (not included) to secure the bars in place on the canvas.
Step 4: Remove the double-sided adhesive tape on each stretcher bar. Then curl up all 4 sides into each other. Squeeze the corners to secure all of the stretcher bars in place.
Step 5: Insert each "U" Nail into the pre-drilled holes on each Stretcher Bar. Once all 4 "U" Nails are inserted by hand, use a hammer to secure the nails to the Stretcher Bars.
Step 6: Insert the Corner Wedges into the grooves on the side of each Stretcher Bar. Use a hammer to secure the Corner Wedges into place.

I have 2-5piece sets which I purchased from you last October’18
“Ocean View” (Order P250250D) and also “Bright City Lights”(OrderP252259D). I am hoping you have Stretcher Frames which are suitable for 5 piece sets with different size prints which I would really like to purchase. Please let me know as I want to be able to make sure I have a beautifully finished piece of art.
where do I order/buy the bars – do they come in different sizes?
I don’t see answers for the questions above. So you have to frame before starting? How do you know which size frame to get?
