I lastly acquired round to hanging this photograph of Garrett from final winter on this tremendous funky and rustic beadboard image body that I purchased from Southern Accents final yr.
Why did it take me so lengthy you ask?
Properly, right here was the maintain up.
This body had no {hardware} and no glass in it. It was customized made by the fellows at Southern Accents in Cullman so it wasn’t hang-ready once I purchased it. So my lazy self by no means acquired round to including {hardware} and hanging it. Secondly, it has 10″ x 10″ sized gap, so it’s not precisely a regular measurement. I ordered an 8 x 8 photograph for it with intentions of shopping for a matboard and doing it the “proper” approach.
Properly, the fitting approach was boring, so I by no means did it. I simply leaned this body in random spots round my home as a result of it’s cool sufficient to face alone as a murals!

However final week one in every of my good mates gave me the perfect thought for utilizing this body with out exerting an excessive amount of effort ready on the fitting measurement mat. Lisa at York Designs (who actually must weblog much more actually because her model is out of this world FABULOUS!) confirmed off her nursery footage not too long ago. She had purchased a singular previous image body, too. As a substitute of matting it, she had strung a chunk of paintings on a wire with a clip.
And bingo! Mild bulb went off! That was how I might work round my empty body dilemma!
So right here is my interpretation of that concept:

I didn’t have any clips mendacity round so I used a key ring. I assumed it seems fairly good!

I used one wire to hold it and one other wire as a suggestion to string the photograph, and that’s it!

Mark this one off the to-do listing.
