I wrapped the frame backing with gift wrap from Paper-Source and today I'm going to show you how I achieved the look... it's really just like wrapping a present. So easy... grab your supplies and follow along with me!!!
- frame(s)
- gift wrap (or even kraft paper, fabric, wallpaper, scrapbook paper, decorative paper, a map, newspaper, magazine or book tear-outs)
- scissors
- tape or glue suitable for paper
- photo, artwork, etc
1 Open the frame and remove the backing.
2 Unroll the gift wrap and place the frame backing front-side down on top of the gift wrap.
3 Cut the gift wrap leaving a 2" border around the frame backing. Note: before a cut is made, check the gift wrap to make sure the design is straight and/or positioned in the area you'd like to frame.
4 Fold the edges of the gift wrap over the frame backing along one edge and tape to secure (I used masking tape)....
5 Repeat step 4 on the opposite side.
5 Fold all the corners over, one at a time.
6 Fold the entire edge onto the frame backing and tape to secure.
7 Repeat step 6 on the opposite side; all sides should now be taped to the frame backing.
9 Turn the frame backing over, front side up.
10 Take the photo, artwork, etc (whatever you will be framing); turn it over and place tape or glue on the back corners corners (I used Glue Dots).
11 Secure the photo, art work, etc, to the gift wrap (I top-centered my photo, but it could be positioned anywhere on the gift wrap).
12 Insert the frame backing into the frame and secure, admire your work and hang it up!
And just for kicks... here's a before and after photo of the wall art... from white to bluish-green... great punch of color!
If you decide to wrap your frames, email me photos, I'd love to see your new design!!!
This is the right blog for anyone who wants to find out about this topic. You realize so much its almost hard to argue with you (not that I actually would want…HaHa). You definitely put a new spin on a topic thats been written about for years. Great stuff, just great!

There are certainly a lot of details like that to take into consideration. That is a great point to bring up. I offer the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly there are questions like the one you bring up where the most important thing will be working in honest good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around things like that, but I am sure that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls feel the impact of just a moment’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.
