If you are looking for a fun activity for rainy days, something fun to do with the kids or just a great way to liven up your home décor, you should consider decorating your own picture frames. You can take regular, ordinary picture frames (such as those you buy at Wal-Mart or Target) and turn them into wonderful, personalized works of art.
Make your memories even more special when you frame them in something you have decorated yourself with your own hands. This makes a wonderful keepsake when you have a hand in making a great photo frame. If you want to create your own art picture frames, here is what you need:
1. A photo frame (can be made of wood, plastic, glass, metal, etc)
2. Something to hold it all on (glue sticks, hot glue gun, etc)
3. Items for decorating
Your items for decorating can vary according to what kind of look you want to have. You can use colored paper, metallic paper or old Christmas and gift-wrapping paper, sequins, glitter and more for a fun, funky look. You can use acorns, small rocks and even twigs or dried leaves for an earthy feel or even buttons or beads. Finding the items to decorate with is half the fun!
If you are not as creative or would like something easy the kids can do themselves, you can also look for a photo frame decorating kit. There are kits available for purchase that come with a photo frame and all the items you need for decorating it. All you need is the creativity and a picture to put in it when you’re done!
If you want to check out some other great, creative picture frames, see the ones at Unique Décor Online. They have metal picture frames, regal picture frame and other beautiful, unique designs.

I love photography – I have dozens of photo albums.
I have many picture frames – but I like to change them and personalize them – and this will help a lot!
Thanks!

I have a willing synthetic vision regarding detail and can anticipate complications before
they will occur.

This craft idea is wonderful! Now I know what to do with the dozens of gift bags that I have collected over the holidays since many of these are in excellent conditions and quality. A completed project like this adds a personal touch that is now a rarity in today’s digitized society where it is easier to send e-cards to friends and family.
