These were so easy to make...like I said, I made them a long time ago but I just took a 2x2 and cut it into little squares, drilled a hole at the top, took some wire and bent it into the shapes, then just hot glued the wire into the hole I had drilled. I did paint the wood blocks an off white. That was it! Cute little picture holders for next to nothing - you probably could use any old scrap wood you have taking up space around the garage!
I stamped some material I had with an awesome little french script background stamp. I use Staz on ink for these types of things...it works excellent and doesn't fade.
Then I took a bunch of scraps and embellishments I had laying around...some old, some new. I just started glueing and creating...no pattern, no thinking, just random "thoughtlessness"! My fave!
I took two pics of the girls and changed them to B&W, resized, and added them.
I didn't add pics to the bottom two...I don't know if I'll use them for gifts or put them up at The Red Poppy! We'll have to see!

Just a note...the hubby calls my craft room the "crap" room...most of the time he is right...it's such a disaster that you could lose a small child in there! It's my creative room....messy as it is, it's mine and it's my little piece of sanity when I need it...and in my defense (my brainiac train of thinking) is I don't want to waste my creative time cleaning it up so I just work away..."crap" and all!
Easy, easy, easy project AND I got rid of some stuff (even though it's little...it counts) from the
