DIY. SAVE MONEY.
Supplies:
- empty frame
- paint
- ribbon
- hot glue gun or stapler
- scrapbook paper, fabric or wrapping paper
Game Plan:
BEFORE: This was just lying around in one of my mom's closests
1. Paint frame to desired color if needed.
A coat of white paint makes a huge difference!
2. Attach strips of ribbon to the back of the frame using a hot glue gun or a stapler.

3. Tape or glue wrapping paper, scrapbook paper, or fabric to the frame backing.
You can actually skip this step and just leave it open too. I opted for polka dot wrapping paper as a backdrop for bows.

4. Pre-drill holes to screw hooks into.

Looks great and glad to have that frame out of my basement!
This is a great idea! Just to warn you though-my boy can NOT keep his hands off of his sister’s hairthings (they make great rubber bands to shoot everywhere)-Hang it up HIGH!!
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MUST do this project!!
SO glad you shared it!
What kind of paint did you use?
I just used white spray paint.
Thank you soo much!! I was worried to use spray paint, but yours turned out great!
Hi! This is so cute, I have been looking for a place to store all my baby headbands. where did you get the little white hooks? And how much are they? Thanks!
We got the little hooks at Home Depot or Lowe’s. I don’t remember how much they were exactly but I don’t think it was over a couple of bucks and there were a lot in there!
What size frame did you use?
