I got a great idea for a holiday themed frame project here.
Now most of the time when I see something on a blog I think to myself "I could make that," but I rarely do. This time I did!
I bought an open frame from Hobby Lobby. I found the clips in the scrapbooking section of Hobby Lobby and the wire in the jewelry section. I found the screw eyes in the frame section at Michael's.
This is the first one I made. It is too small, I think.
The second one I made was for my friend Jenny. Her favorite holiday is Valentine's Day and her birthday was Monday.
Here is what the back looks like.
Mike drilled tiny holes but I also think you could start the hole with a nail and then put the screw eye in once the starter hole was made.
The wire is jewelry wire that was strung tightly across.
I made Jenny enough paper hearts to fill all 30 clips. I also made her cardstock that says Happy Valentine's Day.
I can just see it at Christmas time filled with paper ornaments. Or at Easter with flowers and bunnies!
Or with your Instagram photos!
I cut my paper hearts out using Amy Butler paper from Michael's and my Sizzix die cutter.
and your friend jenny thinks that it is the greatest gift .. ever !!!
