HOW TO MEASURE YOUR CANVAS

Using a metal tape measure, measure your canvas from outside edge to outside edge at its widest point.

Enter the measurement in millimeters (mm).

Measure the Height

measure from the top outside edge to the bottom outside edge at its tallest point.

Record the measurement in millimeters (mm).
