Picture Frame Crafts

I have a large collection of picture frames that I have taken down over the years. I don't part with them "in case I need them". So I occasionally look up ideas. I saw this one on Pinterest so I recently made one similar to this for a dear friends birthday. His mother's favorite song was "What a Day" so I found the music and printed it on parchment paper and framed it for him. He was thrilled to pieces.


I also found people who had painted chalk board paint on picture frames and mirrors. I keep planning to do this but don't have any bigger frames. I'm keeping my eyes out for one at a yard sale.


These crosses with flowers are very pretty and they could work on any size or style frame.


Another cute and simple idea for a gift.


I just love this one. It is perfect for someone with rustic decor.


I was going to do this last Christmas but never got around to it. Hope I remember it this year.


These are really cute and you hang photos on the clothespins. I just love this.


Put plain or lined paper under the glass in a frame and decorate the frame and you have an instant dry erase board. I have done one before and it was fun to decorate. I  just used a bow and big button with my initial in the corner of the frame. 


This is plan and simple, but very cute.


And I adore this. The only thing I couldn't figure out is why the brown paper in the white frame? A snowman is all white. So I would change that up a bit.


There you  have it some nice ideas to use those old frames laying around your house.
