Curtain Rings To Picture Frames

Tessiebear · **Posted: 19-11-2009 , 03:22 PM** #1

I've been making Christmas decorations from curtain rings and have been given such a huge amount of curtain rings that I decided to make picture frames from them. Print out a small photo and glue the ring to it. Glue cardboard to the back to give it extra strength. Glue ribbon to the back for hanging them up. String a few together. You can also just cut picture out of old birthday cards. Enjoy! Only problem is i've more glue on my hands at the moment

Lovely. Could be filled with Christmas scenes too!

Great idea. I'm also thinking of spare rings from old ringboard games which might be lying around. Probably have to decorate the rings though. Well done Tessiebear!
