Crate Frame

I had a picture of my boys that I wanted to frame. I have so many of them now thanks to my friend, Michelle.  It was printed and mounted on a foam board like backing already. Sometimes that thickness will not fit in a traditional frame. I was looking around my house for a different way to display rather than just without a frame.


I took the wooden crate that I purchased from Elizabeth and Co's tag sale last year and put it up on its side. Then I placed the picture inside of the crate. It was the perfect fit.  This could easily be mounted on a wall too.  I may have to hunt for more crates at her tag sale today.

 This was just a plain old crate before I added the picture, and I think it makes the crate look cute! I love crates because they have so many great uses around the house. Do you have any crates in your house? How do you use them?

    That crate goes perfectly with the wood in the picture! Never would have thought to show off a picture like that. Your boys are so adorable with their cute button down shirts and those hats are wonderful!
