my husband & i made this frame for my sister-in-law and her husband this past Christmas! we wanted to make them something customized, so we used their last name initial. we also wanted to make something they could update if they want, so we used the clothespin technique so they can change out pictures!
materials needed:
frame
burlap
spray paint
clothespin
ribbon
picture
spray glue (for burlap)
step 2: spray glue on the backing of the frame & attach your burlap. once it is dry, place it in the frame.
step 3: glue ribbon around the edges to create a border.
step 5: glue a small clothespin onto the burlap & attach a picture!
ta-da! a super easy & super cute personalized picture frame! this is the perfect handmade gift!
have you ever customized a frame? if so, what did you add on?
So this one time... my best friend created a date for Daniel and I. We were supposed to go to Hobby Lobby and buy supplies to decorate picture frames. Daniel picked out pink princess stickers for his. So now, there's a picture of us on his desk with a frame covered in unicorns and flowers and rainbows. Probably not the answer you were looking for....
