Do you have an old frame without glass lying around and don’t
know what to do with it? You can make a
cute recycled frame photo holder. You
attach the photos with mini clothespins so you can change them whenever you
like. I had a smaller frame but you can
use a frame of any size.
Make your frame extra special by personalizing with paint,
letters, etc. It’s not just for photos
either. You can use this frame to hold
notes, grocery lists and more.
Materials:
- Frame without glass
- Jute twine
- Staple gun with staples
- Mini clothespins
- Scissors
- Ruler
Instructions:
1.
Turn your frame to the back and measure from
side to side. Cut a piece of jute twine
to fit across the frame with a little extra.
2.
Tie the ends of the jute into a knot. Use the staple gun to attach the jute to each
side. Place the staple right before the
knot.
3.
Continue to place jute across the frame as many
as you can fit according to the frame size you are using. Make sure there is about 6 inches vertically between the jute cords. My frame was 11 x 12 so only two jute hangers
would fit. Add the mini clothespins to the jute cords and use them to attach photos, notes and more. Hang on the wall as you would any frame.
4.
Attach the mini clothespins to the jute and add
photos or notes as desired.
I love this idea! Thanks Crystal!
