How to Make Cheap Wood Frames

Supplies:
– Stretched Canvas (They are available in various sizes.)
– Flat nose pliers

Instructions:
Step 1: I took out various sizes of canvases that I had along with a pair of flat nose pliers.

Step 2: I turned over a canvas and used my flat nose pliers to remove all the staples around the canvas frames.

Step 3: I removed the canvas and look what I found! A super cute wood frame!

Talk about easy, right?! Of course I continued the easy process with the rest of my canvas frames.

How to Make Cheap Wood Frames – Rustic Frames

It was actually by pure luck that I discovered there were beautiful wood frames hidden within canvas frames.

Gabrielle and I were cleaning up her room and found a bunch of canvases that she had painted on. She didn’t want them anymore but I wanted to save her paintings. I figured that I may as well try and save the paintings by removing them from the frames.

By removing the canvases, I noticed the rustic looking frames underneath. SCORE!! And since the frames were perfect to decorate with, I used them to decorate her room.

So, what do you think of my DIY Wood Frames? Pretty cool, right?!

I just love it when something cool comes out of something unexpected. The possibilities with these frames are endless too! They can be painted and be used so many different ways: think wedding photo booths, think DIY headboard too! And the best part, they cost as little as a $1 depending on where you buy them. The ones we had here were from the dollar store.
