Picture Frame Wall Decor

Use IKEA poster frames to create a family photo display that looks more expensive!
Prep Time15 minutes
Yield: 3 framed photos
Cost: $80

Equipment

  • 1 tape measurer
  • 1 level
  • 3 hooks or nails or command strips, however you prefer to hang art
  • 1 Pair of scissors
  • 1 pair pliers optional, but useful for popping off the back of the photo frames

Materials

  • 1 roll scotch tape
  • 3 pieces poster board

Instructions

  • I always start by laying out how I want the frames to be, and marking with a pencil where the photo is going to sit within the mat.
  • Cut your poster board down to align with the photo mat. You want it to not have any gaps showing.
  • Tape your photos to the poster board, facing forward. At this point it helps to kind of lay the frame over the poster board and mat so that you can see what it will look like.
  • Take some nail polish remover to the front of the plastic photo cover, it takes the black marks right off.
  • Stack everything back into the frame and close the frames.
  • Hang your photos!
