Picture frames are very decorative, but just hanging pictures all the time? Here I have an idea of how to skillfully showcase other things with a picture frame:
Crafting instructions: Decorating picture frames with flowers and leaves
What you’ll need:
- Picture frame
- dried leaves, blossoms, fruit slices or berries
- sheet of paper, colored or to paint
- double-sided tape (Or roll up Tixo), or glue
- Scissors
Crafting instructions:
Look for beautiful motifs in nature for the pictures: leaves, clover leaves, flowers, or even an orange slice. Let the leaves dry. The best way to do this is to place the flowers and leaves in large, heavy books a few days beforehand so they become nice and flat.
Paint a sheet of paper in the desired color or use ready-made colored construction paper and cut it to the right picture-frame size. Then attach the motif, e.g.: a large dried leaf, to the paper with double-sided tape or glue so that nothing can slip.
Or arrange lots of beautiful blossoms nicely on the paper and glue them on.
Extra tip: Here, you can also simply roll up a piece of Tixo so that it sticks on both sides. To do this, cut off a piece of Tixo, place the sticky side facing outward and stick the ends together well.
After drying, put everything into the picture frame (without the glass!) and hang it up.
