Hey chirpers!
I combined my new found Modge Podge skills with my jewelry making skills and made some super cute picture frames for a charity auction.
Supplies:
- 2 Wooden Picture Frames
- Spray Paint
- Glossy Modge Podge
- 2 Wooden Knobs
- Scrapbook Paper
- Rhinestones
- Spray Adhesive
- Loctite Power Grip
First I spray painted the wooden picture frames and then added the scrapbook paper with Spray Adhesive. (I cut the scrapbook paper to size BEFORE I glued it to the frame!) I picked 2 complimentary papers since the thought is that these would be for 2 Best Friends. Next, I used my handy dandy Silhouette Cameo and cut the “Best Friends” text out of some textured card stock. This is an image I downloaded from the Silhouette Cameo store. I don’t do it often, but I was looking for something with a little flair. I placed the card stock and Modge Podged the text and the scrapbook paper to the frames.
Here is a great video on how to use Modge Podge without bubbles or wrinkles:

After letting everything dry (24 hours) I used the Loctite Power Grip and glued the knob to the frame. I embellished the text with the stick-on rhinestones for a little flair.
I added 2 Memory Wire bracelets with “Friend” charms on them to finish it off. (See previous posts on how to make Memory Wire bracelets)
I think they came out super cute!! I think it would be fun to do something similar for a graduation tassel or maybe even a racing medal of some sort.
