I found these little frames at Target in their dollar spot (however this 3 pack was $2.50) and I had a fun idea for some crafty home decor.
Edited to add: The openings of these frames are 4" x 4"
Step 1: Remove the ribbon that came with the frames and drill holes into each frame. (I drilled the holes 1 1/2 inches from the top and bottom and 1/2 from the sides.)
Step 2: Paint and distress the frames.
Step 3: Wire each frame together. (You could also use ribbon or twine to tie the frames together)
Step 4: Dive into your scrapbook stash and whip up some cute pictures to complete your frames. My plan is to change out the pictures for each holiday or season.
Step 5: Fill your frames with cuteness and proudly display in a prominent place in your home!
This whole project cost me under $5! Can't beat that! Now go make one of your own. If you do, I would love to see what you come up with.
*If you can't find the frames at Target, check out the dollar store. Happy Crafting!

Holy cow, Melanie! That is so cute. I love that you come up with this stuff. Which Target did you find them at? I want to make one. And how big are the openings?
Thanks Tami! I sent you an e-mail. The frame openings are 4 x 4".
I'm lovin' the frames! What a great idea! I found the frames at Target and can't wait to make them.
Thanks for a cute and creative idea. I especially like your idea to change out the frames for each holiday.
You amaze me! i think I'm a little jealous. ;)
Sometimes I just hate you!!!baaahhh! I think I will make that...where did you get the cute pix in each frame...?
I went to Target again today, shocker, I know!!! But, I found those same frames in black! Yeah! It will save painting them! I'm one step closer to getting them done!
Lauren and Andrea, you two are too funny! I bought some Valentine stickers at the scrapbook store to use in each frame and the "love" I just cut out of scrapbook paper. I can't wait to see all your cute creations! Mom, score on the black frames (even if that is cheating ha ha)
I went to my Target today and they didn't have any... although they were changing out the bins so hopefully they are coming. I guess I'll just have to keep going to Target everyday. Nothing new there!
Annie,
Have mom look at the Target by her. We have some here too, so if you want me to I can pick them up for you.
