Picture Frame Fun!

Ok, I know this one is super simple. I just had to share because I it's so cute and fun!  I love being able to change out pictures, or keep a picture in a frame forever. Sometimes I want the pictures to reflect the seasons or the season of life we are in!  With the endless possibilities of home decor, let's just keep it simple!

I started this project with a few simple items.

•  Large inexpensive frame 
• Random paper clips or clothes pins  
• Twine or string of choice 
• Photo/photos (made at Costco)

I removed the glass and backing so the frame was, well, just a frame. Before I could attach anything else, I had to make a hard decision; hang the frame landscape, or portrait.

After making my sons hold the frame up all different ways for several minutes of agony, I decided on landscape, and they survived, just barely. 

 I used tiny picture screws to tie the twine to the frame. I did have to be careful not to split the faux wood.

You can place the screws and twine where ever you want. I decided to place mine very high on the frame because I am hanging only one large photo. If you wanted to hang several smaller photos, you can easily string several pieces of twine across the frame.  

Before I finished I got a crazy idea to add fun little tags that I had stuffed away in my craft closet. I have a bout a million random little goodies stashed away in there... I might have a problem.... And wash tape... for real, its the most amazing craft item in the history of ever...

WASHI TAPE! EEK!

After stringing all of the letters on a piece of twine, I hung them from the corner in a diagonal and used a piece of tape to hold the letters facing forward.

I did change my mind about where I wanted to hang it after I moved the room around a little. Now it is sitting on my little home made buffet in my kitchen.  I am in love.
