DIY: Picture Project

Luca loves to have pictures all over his room...even before we moved into the new house. I absolutely don't mind so I encourage his creativity any way I can.

When I was trying to decide what to hang on his walls ( I am almost ready for the reveal by the way) I wanted to try something fun and creative...outside of the ordinary frame. I had a couple of these weave baskets given to me by the Mr.'s grandmother and wanted to find a way to use them... perfect solution!

 here's the finished product




This was a super easy project! All you need to do is spray paint the basket ( if you so desire) string the wire ( I used thin jewelry wire) or fishing line through the holes in the basket securing them on each side with a tight knot. Then I took my Instax-mini photos that I selected and paper-clipped them to the wire. That's all! The only other thing you need to do is tack the basket onto the wall...you can do this with a small finishing/hanging nail or even a tack ( depending on the thickness of your basket).

I love how it turned out...and I love that I could create a fun way to display pics with things I had lying around the house...I spent $0 on this project ( I already had the spray paint and everything).

What are some fun ways you have either displayed or seen pictures displayed?

Every morning for the past week or so Luca wants to take a picture with my instax....
dream child I know!
He wants to take a different kind of picture each time ie. silly faces, one with just him, etc....

These 2 were his favorite...yay for momma and her ridiculous bug-eye, silly face...ahahaha
In case you were wondering....kids really do change you lol

Luca,
I hope I will always be able to take your picture on a whim....that we will always have these silly little adventures between us two. I love just holding you as I type away, and your cute input for what I should type....One day, we will have enough blocks to really build a mommy, daddy, luca and canaan robot out of Legos...and we will do it....just to take a picture of it and remember. We do have the Luca robot down pat already though, we will have to post a picture of that soon! I love you little man!
