Happy Monday my friends!! I hope you had a great weekend. I spent my weekend cleaning. Spring always puts me in a nesting mood where all I want to do is clean and start projects. One small and super easy project that I did manage to squeeze in was creating a wood hanging poster frame for a few botanical posters that I got last year at the Country Living Fair here in Nashville. They have been sitting around, and I thought they would be a great addition to my springtime decor.
The fun part about the project is that you can do this with prints, posters, kidâs artwork, or even a printable picture. It just adds a fun touch to your piece and allows you to hang it on the wall or on a hook. This project cost me a little less than $15 for supplies, and it took me less than 30 minutes to finish. So, here is what you will need to get started.
Materials for Wood Hanging Poster Frame DIY
- Picture, Poster, or Art Work
- Wood Pieces Pack (I bought this pack at Hobby Lobby for half off)
- Burlap Twine (Hobby Lobby)
- Staple Gun and Staples (Not pictured)
How To Make a Wood Hanging Poster Frame
Step 1
Cut your wood pieces down to fit your poster. Make sure to cut them a little longer than your poster on each side. Then, turn your artwork face down, and place them over your wood pieces overlapping the paper a little bit on the top and bottom.
Step 2
Staple your poster onto the wood on the top and bottom pieces. I only stapled two times on each piece, but you could do more if you want. I was a little nervous that the paper would not be strong enough to support the wood pieces, but it has held up great. No tearing at all.
Step 3
Cut your burlap twine to your desired length, and staple to the back.
And thatâs really it! See, so simple, and so cute!! I just love how much the wood added to this print!
I loved these botanical prints, but I didnât want to try to find a frame that fit the size of the poster. This project also allows you to customize the size.
I love this DIY because you can literally do two or three of these within 30 minutes. It really is one of the easiest DIYs I have ever done. It adds a little something extra, and it looks super cute too! I especially think this would be a super cute way to hang your childâs artwork. Iâm planning to do that with this DIY very soon! I would love to hear what you made with these!! As always, please let me know if you have any questions! Thanks so much for stopping by!!
