Guest Post- Darling Jute Yarn Key Frames
Hello CraftOManiac’s I am Andrea from The Simple Craft Diaries, and I am thrilled to be Guest Posting for Jen on CraftOManiac.
So this project came to life when I ran out of burlap and was in a rush to finish it. Luckily, something in my house gave an idea:
So this project came to life when I ran out of burlap and was in a rush to finish it. Luckily, something in my house gave an idea:
THIS!
And then ……
Material:
– Jute yarn/twine
-Hot glue gun
-Pencil
-Picture frame
-Old or antique looking keys
-scissors
1. First, mark the bottom and upper inner edge of frame onto the back part
2. Remove the back part. It is where you will wrap the twine
It will look like this:
3. Put your finger where the mark is and start wrapping the twine, after securing this end wit hot glue
4. Continue wrapping the twine. At every 5th or 6th loop put a dab of hot glue for extra tightness
Do not forget to let the hanging hardware free while you are wrapping the yarn
At the end it will look like this:
5. Return the back part back into the frame. You might need to give it a little push, but it will go back in place easily.
The back view…
…..Front view
6. With the hot glue gun attach the key., and your Jute Yarn Key frame is ready !
Another version…same beauty
And here they are already hung on my craft room wall!
Thanks, Andrea
