I posted a pic of me and E on Instagram (I'm Trixiegirlaccessories on Instagram). It was just of us in the car when we were doing some birthday shopping for the hubs. I had a friend, Corie, say we should frame it and give it to him. Well duh! Thanks Cor. Because I did!
I printed the pic (well Walgreens did) and picked up a frame at Target.
But because I can't leave things alone, I thought of this! I picked out the phrase "we love u" from a Scrabble game that I got at a garage sale in the summer. I put some hot glue on the back of each letter to glue it to the "tile holder?" I don't buy Scrabble to play. I buy Scrabble to craft.
Then I sat the picture up as it would normally stand. I put a strip of hot glue along the base of the scrabble stand where it met the frame. Once it dried, I did another strip just to reinforce the glue.
And Voila. You can do this for anyone! What a great present. I think it would make a cute new home present with a picture of someone's new house!
Just look for scrabble games at Goodwill, garage sales or if you don't like either, then you can just borrow a Scrabble game from a neighbor....;)
Super cute! I was wondering what happened to my "w"!? I may have to steal this cute crafty idea!
