When I got drawer handles too long for my dresser, I discovered that back to back they formed a perfect little frame! Here's how to do it with almost no money and about 2 hours time!
My frames came to fruition when I discovered I had bought them the wrong size. After I E-6000 glued them overnight, I picked out the fabric.
Then, to give them a country look, I ripped them into strips. You will need about a yard for each. The frames are 3.5" by 2.75" for the smaller ones, and 4.5" by 3" for the two larger.
With a hot glue gun, I spot glued the end to one of the shorter sides at an angle. This is important as you are going to "wrap in a spiral" fashion.
Now wrap your strips around, making sure there are no gaps. You can spot glue on the corners if you want but if everything stays taught, you shouldn't need to.
Spot glue the end on the beginning. You can leave them plain or embellish them any way you want.
You can keep these as singles, or two, three or more. If you want to connect them, simply turn them over and position them where you want, then hot glue them to each other.
Because I was not doing anything permanent today, I simply sat some frames on some photos or magnets, close enough to each other to give you an idea of what you can do. As you can see, each frame does not have to completely match up with the others. As long as they touch in some area, you are golden.
