Rustic Picture Collage!!


Soooo I started with this super simple rustic frame! I found it for half off at Hobby Lobby!! Super great deal...
 
Some twine... from bed bath and beyond's kitchen section... 
  
And did I mention it was $.97!!!

Throw in my new Staple Gun and some cute pics... maybe a clothes pin or two!
 
Super Easy... here is what I did. 
 
  
I flipped the frame over and stapled the twine to the back of the frame... I just zig-zagged back and forth! Turned it over and this is what I had...

Looked pretty good... 
 
I started to hang pictures. I used clothes pins to keep the pictures in place. I thought it looked good... but boyfriend thought it could use more twine to fill in some of the empty space.
 
Sooo we flipped it back over and stapled some more twine... this time we did a few zig zags going different directions then our first path.
 
With the extra twine I really didn't need the clothes pins to hold up the pictures. You can leave them on if you like them... I decided to leave them off and add more pics. 
We hung our frame in our family room above our TV. This project took 10 mins, was super east and is sooo cute!
I love it!

Love the photos! :) Makes me wish there is a decent craft shop in my city where I can buy a rustic frame myself.
