Spice up your Room! DIY Photo Display

Hey my sunshine!
So, as of today, I'm going to start a new series called Spice up your Room- Creative name right? *sarcasm*. Basically, I'm going to post ideas to freshen up your room.Some will be DIY, and some will not.
So with out further ado, here's the first in the series, a DIY photo display!

What you will need:
Photo Frame
Paint in a color of your choice
Paint Brush
Heavy Duty tape or a Hot Glue Gun
Wire
Small Clothes Pegs

Steps:
1. Remove the backing and the glass from the photo frame so that the frame only remains.
2. Paint the frame- the back doesn't have to be painted.
3. Measure Wire to fit across the frame horizontally and cut, leaving a inch on either side.
4. Flip the frame over, so you are looking at the back,
5. Lay out pieces of wire, using a photograph as a guide to make sure the wire pieces are evenly spread out.
6. Secure each piece of wire at the ends with heavy duty tape or a hot glue gun.
7. Ensure that the tape/glue is concealed beneath the edges of the frame.
8. Pop on the small clothes pegs...and you're done!
9. All you need to do is find a few photos that you want to display in your new stylish display!

This project literally cost me 15 dollars- I only had to buy paint, pegs and wire and it honestly takes 15 minutes, not including time for paint to dry.

Did you like the idea? Comment below. The next project will come up in te next week!
Talk to you soon, Shoba
