Easy DIY Wall Art
After making my wreath and picture frame, everyone I know started saving their empty toilet paper and paper towel rolls for me. I have a huge bag filled with them! I made another picture frame for my mother-in-law for Christmas, and she loved it. It's so nice to be able to create wonderful gifts for a fraction of what it would cost to purchase them. I do have a lot of rolls left over, so this time I wanted to try something new. I hot glued four (4) wooden dowels together into a square. Do this carefully or you may end up gluing it to your work table like I did! I cut three empty paper rolls into half inch (appx) pieces. I made four flower shapes first and glued them diagonally together across the frame. Next I attatched the pieces to the two empty corners. I put three pieces on each side connecting them to the wooden dowels. To fill in a little more of the empty space, I attatched the three pieces into the corners. I really like the result, and it didn't take much time at all. I haven't painted it yet, though. Still deciding on a color!
This is a cool idea as well! :D
