Easy Photo Frame

Standard

Dub

Cute kid, huh?!  Warner is my friend Karen’s grandson, and I love this boy and this photo frame so much I just had to share. Karen created this craft and uses several to display a photo collage of her family.  To create it, she used a black canvas and a frayed piece of burlap a little smaller than the canvas.  Karen used glitter-threaded burlap, but that’s certainly not necessary.  She dabbed some tan-colored paint around the mat’s edges, attached the the burlap to the mat with a spot or two of glue, and finished by gluing the clamp to the top.  Cute, cute, cute!
