I give you…The Wooden Blind Picture Frame:

You’ll Need:

• Old Wooden Blinds (obviously)
• Some Strong Wood Glue (to stick your masterpiece together)
• A Junior Hacksaw (to cut the slats to length)
• A cool picture (to go in your awesome new picture frame)

How To Make It:

1. Dismantle the old wooden blinds so you are just left with the slats.
2. Get your picture and start laying out the first slats around the picture, measure and cut them to size and glue the first layer together.
3. Now measure out the next layer, this should be slight smaller than the first. Cut that to size and glue into place. Repeat this step for however many layers you want, remembering to make each layer shorter than the last.

Behold, look what you have created, you DIY superhero you! What are you waiting for? Go hang that bad boy up!
