I want to share with you today a really quick, easy and pretty DIY that is actually pretty useful! This is great if you don't have like a memo board or if you just want to make a little accessory for a room but want it to be pretty versatile.
What you will need:
The stuff you need is basically things you would find around the house, if you don't have any mini pegs then you could use a cute flower hair clip or a paperclip with some embroidery thread wrapped around it, the possibilities are endless! I got my glue, pegs and brush from bastelprofi.ch
So, start by taking the frame apart, we only need the actual frame and the card backing, so pop that piece of glass in your craft cupboard!
Cover the front of the card backing with your fabric or craft glue, make sure you spread it evenly and that it goes right to the corners!
Press your fabric down onto the glue side and leave to dry, its okay to have messy edges as the frame will hide that! Hooray for hidden messy edges!
So when the fabric as dried, wrap your cord or ribbon around it and just tie in a knot at the back, or you can staple it down but as its squished between the frame and the card it should hold in place nicely. I just used one piece as I will probably peg polaroids onto it, but if you can add as many or as few as you like, depending on its purpose and the size of your frame!
Here it is in all its glory with a little polaroid of Tim and I in Siberia!
Or you could use it to leave notes in your home, or if you have a little shop or B&B you could use it to leave contact details!
The possibilities are endless for such a quick and easy DIY! If you haven't thought of a Fathers day present yet, make him this! And pop a little photo of you in it with a nice message :)
Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoyed this post! Yasmin x
