I first shared this tutorial on Blue Cricket Design last week, but thought I would share it again in case any of you missed it!
I saw something similar to this a few years ago and when I found an extra curtain rod hanging around my house I figured this would be the perfect use for it. I've loved it ever since. Such a lovely way to display your favorite photos!

tutorial
First, paint all your frames black with a sponge brush.
After the paint has dried, use your sand paper to gently sand the edges of your picture frames.
They should look similar to this.
Next, cut your ribbon. I wanted my pictures to hang at different lengths so I cut 5 different lengths: 10", 13", 14", 21" and 22".
Fold each piece of ribbon in half so it makes a loop.
Use your staple gun to attach one piece of ribbon to each frame. Make sure to staple it in the middle so it will hang straight on your rod.
Attach your curtain rod to the wall according to its instructions.
Place the frames on the rod where you want them.
Carefully wrap your berry vine around your rod. It is helpful if you use a vine with wire in it. You can then wrap it tightly so it stays in place.
Enjoy!
