Hello friends! I’m thrilled to share this photo hanger home décor project with you today and give you a little sneak peek into my crafting space. A while ago I saw these hangers on the Jillibean Soup blog as part of their Mixed Media line. I thought they were adorable and had so many possibilities. Two of these cute hangers come in a package. Today I’ll show you what I did with one of mine.

I thought it would be fun to create a project that would hang above my desk that had photos of all of my kids on it. I started by cutting a piece of glittered burlap into a 5x7inch rectangle. I adhered a white doily to the burlap. I used liquid adhesive to make sure that the doily stayed in place.

The liquid adhesive did show through the doily after it dried but I wasn’t worried about that because I knew it would all be covered with my photos and the embellishments.

I printed wallet sized photos of my 3 kids. (I print my photos at home.)

I chose three chipboard frames. I adhered the frames to the photos.

I simply placed the frame over my photos and trimmed the edges off with a pair of sharp scissors.

I chose just a few embellishments including a gold metal frame, some gold chipboard hearts, and assembled my hanger.

And here’s what the finished project looks like. I LOVE how it turned out.

As I promised, here’s a peek into my crafting space. This is the shelf that is above my desk. Don’t you think the photo hanger makes a great addition to the frame above my desk?
