Christmas Picture Frames




What you'll Need

Picture Frames (with framing glass)
Onion Bags
Christmas bows

Method

  1. Take the photo frames you wish to use. I bought these 2 photo frames at Ikea for $1 (pretty cheap...right?)
  2. Take out the picture framing glass and use it to cut a perfect size of the onion bag.
  3. Hold the cut onion bag along with the picture framing glass, and carefully insert them into the picture frame.
  4. Slowly remove the picture framing glass. 
  5. Use a bow around the frame to give a christmas feel.
  6. Use them along with the other christmas decorations.

Note
  1. I used 'red pearl onion ' bags, because the bags are strong , tightly weaved and red in color.
  2. In the same way, 'yellow pearl onion' bags can be used to make some Easter picture frames.

Doily Mail Envelope


Valentine's day is almost here & as my kiddo wanted to make cards for all his friends at class, we came out with the idea of these super cute easy - to - make envelopes to hold the cards we made. They turned out so cute and lovely.



What You'll Need

Heart Doilies
Stickers
Cards / Notes / Paintings / Pictures - To go in the envelopes



Method

  1. Lay flat a heart doily with the (preferred) side down.
  2. Fold one side towards the center.
  3. Fold the other side towards the center so that both flaps overlap / touch each other.
  4. Fold in the corners (top of pic 4) so they won't peek out.
  5. Fold in this side towards the center.
  6. Slide in a card / picture of your choice.
  7. Close the envelope and seal it with glue / sticker.
  8. Turn to the other side, write the address and stamp it.
  9. Your doily mail envelope is ready to be delivered.
