A Pinterest Sucess!


We all know what Pinterest is right? Helping Moms and Wives everywhere come up with unrealistic ideas of how we should be lol I am not a crafty person by nature but I try! Recently I decided to give my living room a much needed makeover, so of course the first place I went for inspiration was Pinterest. After choosing a fabric that worked with my new color scheme and picking up some cheap Walmart frames I went to work on these babies and it literally only took me 10 minutes to complete! This was one of the few ideas that actually turned out exactly how I wanted and was right on budget :)

WHAT YOU NEED
~fabric of your choice! you can be really creative here! Use napkins, old sheets, anything with a pattern you like
~three cheap Walmart frames (whatever color you want )
~a glue gun and glue sticks
~scissors

All I did was take the cardboard that comes with the picture frame and lay it out on my first fabric, then cut around it leaving an inch or so to fold over.
After checking the pattern was straight I began to fold the fabric over the cardboard and hot glue the edges down. Corners were a little tricky so I just folded them in, kind of like you'd wrap a present ;)
After letting it set a minute I just put the picture frame back together and Voila! Instant, unique and very cheap art for my walls!
