I bought some frames from Ikea a while ago. They were in packs of two and made from mulberry paper. Very nice and very cheap, but a bit bland.
I have loads of buttons from scrapping and cardmaking and I thought it would be nice to jazz the frames up a bit using these buttons. The colours I've used for this one match my lounge.
You could use all sorts to decorate this type of frame - Prima flowers, beads, felt, material, glitter. I think it would be a great idea to get some for the kids to decorate. They would make great gifts for family members with their latest school photo in for Christmas.
If you haven't got an Ikea nearby, you could always use Papier Mache frames which they sell at Hobbycraft and most other craft shops.
Have fun experimenting! TFL! Joanne x
Ooh, that colour combination is wondferful! Lovely pic too.

Cute frame. I have some of those frames, bought with good intention but not used yet! I feel inspired now.
