Handmade Photo Frames

Slam Alikom,

Today I wanna share this new project with you.

I have this black photo frame which is divided into 8 photo sections, I love it coz it has plenty of space to show more photos, but in the other side I couldn't find any other frames that could go with it without overcrowding the wall.

Then I thought...Why not to make the frames myself???
I opened my Huge Scrap box and stated to search for the good materials that could work for this project, some foam boards, cereal boxes, scrapbook papers and some embellishments like buttons and ribbons.

This project is super easy, all you have to do is:
1-Cut the old box into squares or rectangles "the size you prefer".
2-cut your scrapbook paper into the same size as the previous squares.
3-I used mod podge to glue the papers to the squares but you can use any glue you have.
4-Print your photos then glue it to the squares.
5-Decorate your frames with your embellishments .
6- Punch some holes to attach the ribbon to them.
6-Hang them to your wall :)

I made two squares and a scalloped rectangle for each frame, then connected them using  ribbon.

Here They are....



My Wall with the big black Frame only.
