Here is my newest project, a wall hanging from my bedroom. Let me tell you that this thing ended up being BIG I mean really BIG, but I LOVE it.
Materials:
Some 1x2 wood that I got at Lowe's, and they cut it for me too.
Little metal L shape metal things
Staple gun
Shower curtain

So I got some wood at Lowe's and they cut it for me. I wanted a rectangle because that would best fit the picture on the shower curtain that I got at Target. So I put it all together, and attached the wood with metal L bracket things you see here.
I did have to do a little cutting at home because it wasn't square but I did finally get it right!
You would have laughed at me if you saw me trimming the excess inch or so I had to cut off. I was sitting on the floor with this saw like tool that
is more like a oddly shaped jagged knife, sawing away, it took me like an hour to get though the wood. Ha Ha.
I did have a square however which made the process a little easier!
Ok so this is what the finished frame turned out looking like! I did end up painting this black because you could kind of see though the shower curtain.
The next thing I did was take the shower curtain and stretch it across my frame. I used a staple gun to attach the shower curtain to the frame. The one thing I could not figure out how to do was get the fold lines out of the shower curtain. So, I am hope with time and tension that they will become less noticeable. Take a look and see what you think.
This was a super easy project and very inexpensive for the size. I think I spent less than $25 on the whole thing and I think it looks great!
