Frame your largest photo print with paint and spend less than $10.
We had a large wall in our formal dining room. Instead of going for a store bought painting or decor, I went the DIY route. So selected a photo of my son and printed it in black and white engineering print from Staples. I went with 36x48 inches. The largest size Staples would print. And spent $7.29.
With my husband's help, taped the wall to paint a faux frame for the photo print. The inner border was measured at 36x48 inches and the outer border was at a gap of 3.5".
Painted the space between the two tapes in orange color.
Suggested materials:
  • Printed Photo   (Staples)
  • Sample paint   (Lowes)
  • Thumbtack pins   (Walmart)
