Easiest Christmas Picture Frame to Make

This is the easiest Christmas picture frame to make ever! I am sharing this craft as part of a sponsored campaign. Who couldn’t use $250 in craft supplies? I love crafting and I am always searching for new craft supplies to inspire my next creation. That’s not always as easy as it sounds. I live in a small town and access to craft stores is minimal. I cannot tell you how many times I have come up with a craft project to do only to abandon it because I cannot find the supplies I need. It’s so frustrating!

I received a box of craft supplies from Consumer Crafts to share this post with you. I was really amazed at how easy the site is to shop. You can shop by type of craft (Kids, Floral, Bridal, Jewelry, etc.) or use their search bar to search for the specific craft item you’re looking for. You can even create an account and add things to your “favorites” list so you’ll remember which items you needed for your next project. You can even check out their sale and just added sections to get the best deals and newest items.

I was truly amazed at how affordable the craft supplies are at Consumer Crafts. My personal favorite is the washi tape! I have totally fallen in love with washi tape and they have a great selection to choose from.

Easiest Christmas Picture Frame to Make

Materials

One wooden picture frame
A variety of Christmas wash tape

Directions

Remove the back of the frame and the glass or plastic so that just the frame is exposed all the way around.
Wrap the washi tape around the frame in a diagonal pattern being careful that it lays flat on the corners.

To give the frame a finished look, you can cover all four sides with a solid color of washi tape.
Put the frame back together.

Christmas already.....NOOOO!! ha/ha just kidding Ellen. What a great idea!! I always worry when I'm giving pictures to people at Christmas time that they will want to frame them differently than how I do it. Now I can do this and make it kind of it's own gift wrap!! Love it!! Pinned & Tweeted!

I think the frame came out nice. We've abandoned projects for lack of materials too (and recipes, but that's another story ;) ). I entered the contest. Thank you for sharing it.

I love this concept because it would be so fun to choose the tape and colors and make a variety that would all look different.

This is really pretty and you are right that it is easy to make. I love how pretty it is and that there are so many variations that you could do with different prints!

Love this! What a great way to make a festive custom frame. I'll have to check Consumer Crafts for washi tape, haven't tried using it yet and these would be great holiday gifts!

It looks great! I've never used washi tape but have been hearing a lot about it lately. I'll have to see if they carry beads and related items.

That is super cute! When I first looked at it I thought that it was fabric and not tape.
