Description

Instructions

  1. Small dscf2930

    Da-daa, this isn't a cereal box. I know. It's a pizza box. Works the same. Don't mindlessly throw it away. ;)

  2. Small dscf2941

    Make a frame construction (maybe according to the size of your picture) and transfer it onto the fabric.

  3. Small dscf2942

    Draw an X in the middle part where your photo will be showing up.

  4. Small dscf2943

    You need to be precise when it comes to the corners. PS: I recommend a fabric that doesn't tend to fray lots.

  5. Small dscf2944

    Trim the tips and glue them on the cardboard.

  6. Small dscf2945

    Fold over the rest of the fabric and also hotglue it.

  7. Small dscf2946

    Be careful with the edges.

  8. Small dscf2939

    Aaaand done. Actually, not, because you'll need to glue the photo on the frame and can optionally glue a piece of cardboard on the back for extra protection, let alone to add a string for hanging the frame, etc. ... yeah, I'm lazy. :D Hope you're ok with it.
