DIY Photo Holders
My hubby had brought me home a bucket of porch finials and old spindles he had picked up at a yard sale. Does he know what I like or what! I decided I needed to use some up on projects. I took these two porch finials and repurposed them into photo Holders
I used some copper wire we had leftover from another project and a drill, glue gun and you will need something round like a wooden spoon handle or an old baster like I used.
First I found the center of the top of the finial. Then drill down as far as your drill can go. The further you can put your wire in the more stable it will be.
Use anything round that you can wrap your wire around. I wrapped mine twice but went back and did a total of four wraps.
The more wraps you do the tighter the hold will be on the photo you use.
Then just stick your wire in your hole and I added a dap of hot glue to stabilize it even more.
You can tell here that I wrapped a couple more times. I felt it was too high otherwise.
Now on to repurposing some more of the yard sale finds. I have a bucket of old spindles. Stay tuned!
Enjoyed the project?
