DIY: Easy Wall Decor

Hey you beautiful people out there,

Hope you all are doing great! I am also doing great and busy in decorating four walls of my new abode. And while thinking of new ideas which will not be pricey at all, I came up with this very easy DIY using a couple of beautiful greeting cards that were sent to our family on some occasions. 


This way we'll be able to cherish beautiful memories and would be able to do true justice to feelings of relatives and well wishers. And really, it turned out to be really fun idea.

SO here's my quick guide to make a simple yet attractive wall poster/frame. 

You'll require the following items:

  • Cardboard
  • Wrapping paper
  • Greeting cards (5-6)
  • Scissors
  • Glue stick/fevicol

HOW TO MAKE:

  1. First punch in the holes on the back of the cardboard and stuck in a decorative thread or lace through which you may want to hang on your frame.
  2. Then cover the cardboard with wrapping paper. This is just to make a background a more pretty.
  3. Place the greeting cards to make a pattern. It's perfectly OK if the cards doesn't fit the cardboard.
  4. For this pattern, I have glued the cards only half-way on the board to make an unique uneven pattern.
  5. Satisfied with the pattern, Glue your cards on to the wrapped cardboard. Make sure to glue the folds of the cards (in case of greeting cards)
  6. Place a heavy flat object on the back side of the frame and leave it to dry for minimum of 30 minutes.
Hurray! Your wall decor frame is ready and is looking awesome. You may increase the length or width of the frame.
