Project of the Month: Picture frame jewelry display
It’s Friday! So as we head into the weekend (free time!), I thought I’d show you my latest creation. I’m not super crafty, but occasionally I turn out a project or two….
Since I LOVE jewelry and have a considerable collection, I decided that I should try to put together something that would properly display my favorite pieces, rather than keeping them lumped in trays. I happened to find a very cool silver metal Moroccan frame for a song. The frame originally held a mirror, but the glass shattered, so I got the frame for 40 euros (about $55) – not bad for a frame that’s 90cm x 120cm (or about 3 feet x 4 feet)! I also bought some khaki linen fabric from an art store (about 20 euros or $28) and a piece of poster board to fit the frame (about 4 euros or $6). All of my other supplies were normal household items – scissors, stapler, small nails, a hammer.

step 2: cut the fabric so there’s about an inch of extra fabric on all four sides of the poster board

take a break: doesn’t the wrapping tape look like a colorful piece of art when stuck to a white wall?

step 5: hammer small nails into the sides of the frame so that the nails are parallel to the frame. this keeps the poster board and backing board in place.
Wishing you a weekend full of inspiration!
