Original photo frame
After repairs, small scraps of plastic panels always remain. They lie idle and litter the room. There is an opportunity to give them a second life - in the form of beautiful and absolutely exclusive photo frames.
Materials and tools.
To work you will need:
PVC panel. Plastic start, which is usually used for fastening. PVA glue. Glue brush. A simple pencil. Ruler. Paper knife. Scissors. Solid backing. Photo. Patience.
Progress.
Work is performed on a substrate so as not to scratch the surface of the table.
1. Using a pencil and a ruler, mark a rectangle on the surface of the panel, the dimensions of which correspond to the dimensions of the photograph + 0.5 cm. The margin is needed so that the start fixed later does not cover the image. Cut out the resulting outline. Plastic panels are cut very easily and smoothly with a regular stationery knife.
The base for the frame is ready.
2. Next, we prepare the starts that will serve as a frame for the photo. We cut four strips, the lengths of which should be equal to the dimensions of the frame.
The starts fit onto the panel quite tightly, so for convenience you can make several cuts on the wider side.We make cutouts along the edges of the planks so that there are no overlaps on the back side that will spoil the appearance of the photo frame.
3. We attach the prepared starts along the edges of the panel.
4. The next stage is processing the corner joints on the front side. We carefully place the starts on top of each other and mark the joint line on the top one. We cut both strips according to the markings. The finished frame looks like in the photo.
Ready! All you have to do is insert a photo!
Decoration.
There is no need to limit your imagination here! You can leave the frame white, you can paint it any color, or you can decorate it with what you have on hand. While working, it is better to cover the photo with film or glass so as not to stain it.
1. Aluminum caps from small pharmaceutical bottles will add volume to the frame and look very original. Just glue them in a checkerboard pattern.
2. The same caps, but cut in the shape of a flower. Glue a small bead in the middle.
3. Confetti from a New Year's cracker is an excellent decoration for children's photographs. Glue them to the frame in any order (or better yet, in disarray).
4. Even a piece from a broken hairpin can become an original decorative element.
5. If you evenly cover the frame with spray paint, then you can scratch out this interesting pattern with the back end of the glue brush.
In this way you can create photo frames of any shape and size, one of a kind. The main thing is not to be lazy and take care of your fingers when working with a knife!
