Crankin' Out Crafts Episode 257 - Mosaic Picture Frame

Create a unique design with Mosaic tile and give a gift that will last for a lifetime. Mosaics can make your project dimensional and add a splash of color and texture.

See how JFlo creates a one of a kind Frame.

Here's another easy project to make with our new mosaic tiles: Crankin' Out Crafts: Episode 257 - Mosaic Picture Frame

Ready-to-Decorate Wood Frame with plaque

Ceramcoat acrylic paint (we used blue bayou & gecko)

paintbrush

mosaic tiles

vinyl word stickers

This project is great to make for Father's Day on Sunday, June 16th! Come and check out the different color packs of mosaic tiles and ready-to-decorate wood surfaces at our stores.

Seashells by the Seashore Picture Stand and Jewelry Hanger

I am so excited about all the beautiful seashells we have in-store...so many seashells, so many possibilities.  This seashell picture hanger is a decorative way to display pictures, postcards, jewelry and more.  Take a 12x12 picture frame, replace glass with decorative card stock.  Glue jute, twine or ribbon to the sides of your frame carefully with a hot glue gun.  Decorate mini-clothes pins with shells (using hot glue or E600 glue) and clip onto the jute.  Now you have a beautiful display for your home or office, and you can change out the pictures and the background paper whenever you like!

  

Great idea for wedding memories.  Why chose one picture to put in a frame to remember your special day when you can pin up multiple photos, your invitation, vows and other memories!  You could even use wrapping paper from one of your favorite gifts, or your wedding program/invitation for the background paper.

Use a black Deco pen to personalize seashells.  Glue a shell directly on the frame, or onto a magnet (for a metal frame/surface or refrigerator) with E600 glue.  I can't wait to share these magnetic shell greetings with my friends and guests from the mainland!

I am so excited about these bohemian-beach-chic shell earrings.  No drilling required!  The shell picture hanger design makes an awesome display for your earring collection too!
