I was searching the web for more ideas to add to my craft room. I was looking for different ways to display art or photos. I've seen a lot of uses of chicken wire on Pinterest and Etsy and thought this would be an easy DIY project. I found this frame at Goodwill. I took the picture and matting out and painted the frame blue.
I then cut an old piece of chicken wire to the approximate size of the the frame opening.
Using a staple gun I staple the chicken wire in place every couple inches. I found this part a little challenging. if you pull the chicken wire too much to one side it will change shape and look crooked. After stapling all around I cut off the excess wire with wire cutters.
I'm really happy with how it turned out. I also added some handmade fabric flowers to the corner for more color. I used mini-clothes pins to attach my favorite pieces of my son's art
