Another Easy Picture Holder

Project Rating: PE,TT,BE {Pretty Easy, Takes Time, But Easy}

First the backstory: Almost a month ago one of my flea market friends gave me these little spice bottles. At the time I didn't know what I was going to do with them ~ then the "a ha" moment ~ Of course, I'll make some MORE picture holders for the flea market I'll be doing this weekend.

Anyone who follows my blog knows I have a BIG thing for unique "do-it=yourself" picture holders.



First, I filled the bottles with old book scraps. I like how they look FILLED better than empty.



Next, I took my scraps of pictures, books, and writing; and covered the outsides. I wanted a scientific look...you could do any style you like.



I gathered up my supplies including old buttons and wire.



I got out my wire cutters and round-nose pliers to cut and bend wire.



If you go to my last photo holder tutorial, you can see my technique for bending and attaching the wire.

I added buttons and embellishments, and finally...

I made little pictures to display with the bottles, but you could display whatever you want ~ business cards, photos, wedding table numbers, place cards ~ anything you want!
