Reduce, reuse,
recycle has become the motto of people all over the world, as we strive to bring our environment into shape. Our landfills have become so strewn with garbage, we just don't know what to do with it anymore. Stop and think for a minute before you decide to throw something in your trash bin. Can it be reused for something else, something needed anyway?
Jenny thought about what she could do with an empty candy box, and decided to repurpose it into a picture frame. She glued the top and bottom together, and then cut out an easel from the back of the box so that it could stand upright. Check out her full step by step instructions to
make your own photo frame.
Jenny used a heart shaped candy box to make her picture frame, but I am sure you can use any kind of candy box. You can even put the box in a frame and hang it on the wall. Embellish it with ribbons, buttons or
stickers, and you have yourself a one of a kind
picture frame.

cute idea, and does have some uses and possibilities.
ReplyIn my own case, Im looking for mor the usual picture frames.
I currently go to garage sales/estate sales and pick up quality pic frames when possible.
Once in a while I find reall worthwhile frames.
I bought 5 for $1 that at a local store were sellling for $10 each.
Wish I could find poster frames similarly.
ANd no, not the flippy kind.. Those are too cheap.
I need to find the expensive hard frame for posters or figure out alternatives.
