Before & After: Chicken Wire Frames

Only three weeks left until the Wedding Day Hooray! We're pretty excited that our vision for our booth is coming together so quickly thanks to a lot of DIY projects and Salvage shopping.

After that scary Saturday morning of floods and hail, we also brought home some old doors (more to come on this project!) and empty frames. We wanted a way to showcase some of our invitations, so we thought some vintage frames and chicken wire will do the trick!

All you need is:

Wooden Frame
Chicken Wire (you can get at your local hardware store)
Staple Gun with Staples
Wire Cutters

Directions:

Unravel the chicken wire and cut the wire with your cutters to the same shape as the back of your frame. Once you are done, you are ready to start stapling. I had a hard time to get the staple flat to the frame. Some of them didn't go through all the way, so you have to really push down hard. After you staple the wire all the way around the frame, it's time to get those clothespins out and start displaying pictures, invitations, etc.

Happy DIY!
