Bedroom Decorations

I wanted something different to the simple photo frames to hold all these cute pictures i had lying around and after searching on the internet i found some really cute ideas, one was a wall hanging from Ikea, but i wanted it right now! so i made something similar myself, i had all the things i needed at home and it was easy.



Wall Hanging
what i used:
- pictures
- light weight objects can also be used such as bows, fake flowers and other things.
- white ribbon (any size and any length, you'll need about five pieces.)
- stick tape


what i did:

1. take your ribbon and cut it to the preferred length. different lengths works best, it gives a variety and you can change the number of photos per ribbon.

2. lay one piece of ribbon landscape and the rest of the ribbon horizontal  tying it to the first ribbon piece in little bows. or you can use pegs.

3. position your photos however you prefer along the ribbon and stick tape the backs of them onto the ribbon. 

4. on your wall place two hooks the length of your landscape ribbon apart (remember that you will be tying your ribbon to the hooks so leave some length for that.)
5. tie on your ribbon to these hooks, i didn't have any hooks, so i used blue tack for the time being, i'll get the hooks later. if you're afraid of using permanent hooks, try using the removable ones, they're just as strong and come of without marks.
