MATERIALS

So here's what you'll need!

- Letter (Hobby Lobby, Michaels, whatever arts and crafts store) (Mine was 99 cents)

-Paint (Sample size works)

-Picture frame, whatever size. (Just brand surely it tin terminate hold upwards painted) *TIP* You tin terminate larn frames SUPER inexpensive at the dollar shop or at whatever thrift store! (I got mine at Hobby Lobby for $3.99 but used a coupon hence got it for precisely over $2.00)

-Painters Tape (Only if you desire to produce a frame amongst stripes)

-Ribbon (if you would similar to hang it up)

-Glue (Super mucilage volition function fantastic, liquid nails, modge podge)

-Fabric, whatever form you wish!

-Scissors

Everything I for this projection I had on paw except the frame & missive of the alphabet hence it solely toll me $3.00! You could even hence easily produce this on whatever budget for nether $10.00 or $15.00. Easy. This I consider to hold upwards i of the easiest projects I've done to date. I got it all done inwards 10 minutes or less.

 (not including pigment drying time)

The starting fourth dimension stride that I did was record off how I wanted my stripes to be. I used my painters record to produce every bit shown. When you are icon stripes, a adept tip to larn a nice, build clean trouble subsequently you take away the record is to pigment the record too. Yes, pigment the tape.

Below is a photograph subsequently I took off my paint. Pretty forthwith lines :) After this, I simply took the record I already used (recycle & repurpose), used it i time to a greater extent than too taped off the already painted parts hence I could painted the unpainted sections a cream color.

I sanded the front end downwardly for a overnice smoothen complete but this isn't actually necessary. I also slightly distressed it which you also don't bring to produce if you don't wish.

I took out the dorsum of the movie frame too this was the insert that I had every bit good a slice of cardboared tally to size of the frame that is non shown. I used it every bit a take to cutting my cloth to size. I gave myself nearly an inch all roughly precisely to hold upwards surely I had enough!



Now, you don't fifty-fifty bring to mucilage your cloth to the cardboard that comes amongst the frame but I did! As you tin terminate see, I had alot of excess cloth but I would rather bring been security than sorry. I had nearly ii inches all around. I precisely took pair of scissors & cutting it downwardly more.

Take the prongs on the dorsum side too set them dorsum downwardly to concur the cloth securely inwards place. Remember if you're using whatever form of cloth to brand surely it isn't besides unloose on the front end too to also brand surely that it isn't besides tight where the cloth is laying uneven.

So, what produce you intend of my DIY missive of the alphabet movie frame? Totally slow right? And it solely toll me $3.00!
