DIY Photo and Message Board

When these laser cut wood frames first started popping up in craft stores, I couldn't wait to get one. I didn't know what I'd do with it but I couldn't resist. Years later, I still have this thing sitting in my closet and still no idea what to use it for. The day has come...I have an idea!!!

Supplies:

Art Minds laser cut wood frame

fabric

foam core board

string

mini clothes pins

spray adhesive

glue gun

1. Stain the frame

2. Cut two pieces of foam board for back. I use foam core board all the time for projects because it's super cheap and light weight.

3. Spray adhesive on one side of one foam board and attach fabric. Cut the fabric a little larger so the edges can wrap around the sides.

4. Glue other foam board onto back of fabric board This is to cover the edges of fabric and give it a more clean, finished look.

5. Hot glue strings on back side of wood frame.

6. Attach fabric covered foam boards to back of wood frame with hot glue.

These mini clothes pins come unfinished or painted(Michael's). I painted my own with some watered down acrylic craft paint.

This board is going on the wall behind my computer desk! I can look at beautiful photos of my kids while I work and now I have a place to put my lists and notes so I won't loose them.
