Picture Frame Makeover!!

Before:

3-1

After:

9-1

I bought a nice small picture frame but wanted to add a little more fun! The frame was nice and small but with some decorative tape, It gave a new fun project! Let’s get started…


Materials:

1-1

*Craft Knife


2-1

*Decorative Packaging Tape


3-1

*Picture Frame (This one is 3in x 3.5in)


Instructions:

4-1

Remove the plastic on the frame and add some scratch paper to prevent the tape sticking to the back of the frame.


5-1

Place the decorative tape across the frame. Be very careful, wrinkles could hard to prevent. You might have a different frame and tape but it can still get a nice makeover.


6-1

Wrap the tape around the edges. If your frame has a 3D decoration, use the knife to cut around it and have the emblem show. The tape is thin and a sudden movement can rip it. I had to take the tape off and re-apply a new piece.


7-1

Here is showing the crown nicely. Be very careful when trimming the edges with the knife.


8-1

Next is to cut the inner frame. Check for rough tape edges and trim them with a sharp knife, be careful.


9-1

The final step is, adding the picture. This will be a special present for anyone.
