DIY: Picture Frame

Wednesday, April 17, 2013
1.) Cut pieces of frame molding to desired length. (Home Depot has a cutting station where you are able to use their saws & do it yourself!)

2.) Paint pieces desired color. (I obviously chose green because its my fav!)



3.) Screw 'L' brackets onto corners to attach pieces together. (Note: the pieces do not have to fit perfectly together, its suppose to look old & a bit worn out.)
4.) Use a staple gun to place a staple across from each other on both sides of the boards.  Then take hanging wire & loop it through the staple & tie it so that it stays loosely in place.

5.) Lay pictures to adjust where second wire should be strung.  Leave enough room for pictures to hang loosely.

6.) Screw hangers onto back.

7.) Use clothes pins to attach pictures on the wires wherever your little heart desires!

8.) TA-DA! Finished product.
         Hello friends.  Its time for a DIY!  You all dress fashionably & your house should be just as fashionable.  My house, particularly, is just as quirky as me.  And, it is currently under a spring cleaning/remodel.  I think you all will enjoy this project.  Its pretty simple, just takes a little imagination & a strong arm.  Head to your local Home Depot & choose frame molding that suits you best.  You will have to saw the pieces yourself...so I hope you have been working that bicep out at the gym.  >>enter winking emoji<<  Choose a paint & purchase it in a sample size (its super cheap-like $3).  Once I painted the pieces, I used sand paper to scratch it so it looks vintage.  Follow the instructions to attach the pieces so that it stays together.  Hang it on the wall, grab some clothes pins & attach your pictures.  Voila!  An amazing piece to attach to the wall.  My favorite part about it is that I can change the pictures out frequently!
        Happy Wednesday.  I shall be spending mine boating around the clear blue water this sunny afternoon.  Stay tuned for more fun projects & of course, fashionable attire. xoxo.
