Martha Stewart’s Encyclopedia of Crafts is filled with TONS of awesome crafts! The one I am showing you now is fantastic. You can go to stores and purchase these babies for lot’s of moolah! Guess I never really realized just how easy they were to make!
Dress up your desk with reminders, your home with Christmas cards, a birthday gift with memorable pictures on it or stick it in your kitchen with to do notes! The possibilities are endless! Just tuck the pictures into the loops of this fan shaped baby and your set!
All you need for this craft is wire and needle nose pliers. It’s fun to know you have common things around your house that make the most unique gifts! See, it’s about using what we ALREADY have!
Snip two 16-inch pieces..two 15-inch pieces…three 14-inch pieces…and four 13 inch pieces.
Grab one end of the wire and make a loop like this. This is the loop that will hold the pictures.
This is how I made my loops. ((don’t mind ashy’s dirty fingers haha) I used a marker and wrapped the wire around it. {{trust me it makes it so easy}}
Bundle all of the loose pieces of wire together leaving the 4 longest ones sticking out like this.
Look how pretty all the ends look!
After you bundle them together you want to wrap the bundle with 28 gauge wire. Ending where the shorter wires end.
You now want to spread out the four long wire out. This will make a base for you. Use needle nose pliers to make a small loop at the end of each long wire.
And there you have it. Your very own photo ((or whatever you want)) display. Can you believe it’s that easy! You can spray paint this baby if you want to dress it up. I think I will spray mine GOLD.. If I do I will update with a picture of it! Happy Crating!
Full of happiness today, jaderbomb
