Roundabout: Quick change Photo frame

Wednesday, April 13, 2011

I found a few of these wood frames for $0.75 each. I decided to use one of them as an sort of a memo / photo frame.

Using some left over fabric & batting I got started. After wrapping the batting & gluing it down, I then did the same with the fabric

Then I weaved some ribbon (like when making a memo board) pulled tight & glued each one down.

Then back in the frame it went!

After placing it back into the frame, I decided to paint it white to go with my gallery wall in our dinning room.

This frame is great since I tend to change out our pic.s on this wall so much! It’d be great to hold a few photos at a time as well : )
