home decor project #1



This is my newest and favorite home decor project right now (we're working on some others, so we'll share when they are finished too). This plate hanger has been hanging empty in the breakfast room for 2 years now. I saw a project similar to this on another blog a while back but couldn't quite figure out exactly how I wanted to use it in our house. As I was tagging photos last week, I realized that there aren't a lot of current photos around for us to enjoy so I decided to use the plate hanger for a seasonal photo display.

It's super easy too. I just took 4 favorite photos from the past few months, cropped to 8x10 size, added some text, printed and put into clip frames I found at Michaels. This is hanging on the wall beside the powder room so all of us get a chance to enjoy it at some point in time :)

You are so stinking clever! Very good girl! Love it and the idea that you can change it out. Oh OH! Put past family Christmas photos in it at Christmas. Did I just create more work for you around the holidays? Oooppsss, sorry.

Seriously, looks great!
