How to Make a Polaroid Photo Frame

The project can be recreated using any size of frame, perfect if you've got a spare one lying around the house – after a quick lick of paint, it'll be looking as good as new in no time!

How To Make
Trim your pictures so that they are all square, and preferrably all the same size.
Remove the glass and backing board from the frame and use a pair of pliers to remove the metal tabs that hold the backboard in place. Lay the frame on the floor or any flat surface will do, and position the photos inside the frame, working out how many you would like on each twine strand.
Take your first photo and decide which colour card you'd like to use for its border. Use a pencil to draw around the photo onto the card. Remove the photo and then use a pencil and ruler to draw the full polariod frame shape around it. Ensure that the frame is the same width around the top and side edges, and then larger at the bottom.
When you are happy, cut out your frame using a craft knife.
Repeat with your other photos.
Use double-sided tape to stick your photos into the polaroid frames you have just created.
Then use stickers and whatever embellishments you have to hand to decorate around the frames.
Cut some lengths of twine to the same length as the frame and use a hot glue gun to secure the ends to the inside of the frame.
Once the glue has fully dried, use mini pegs to attach your polaroid pictures to the twine.
Your polariod photo frame is now complete!
