I made a present for my mother-in-law Carolyn that I am hoping she will really like. I saw this in a gift shop this season and thought I'd try it out.
The boys decorated it for me after I got the ornaments done. I might spread them out a little more and put a little fabric around the bottom. I think she could probably leave this out year-round if she wanted to.
I took pictures of our family members and turned them black and white and printed them out as wallet sizes so they would fit in 2x3 frames that I purchased at the dollar store.
These frames had the little prop in the back so they could sit on a table. I took those off and then hot-glued ribbon to the backs of the ornaments to use as hangers.
I let them dry for a few minutes and they were ready to hang.
Night shot. I'll rearrange these and maybe add some ribbon once we get to Mississippi. So what do you think? I think I need to make one for myself!

Stopping by from Met Monday. What a cute idea! I want to make one... and I think it could definitely be left out all year!
Merry Christmas!

What a cute and unique idea!!!
I love it!!!
That's a cool project for anyone, but I am thinking it would be especially great for shut ins.
You can't go wrong with B&W pics of your children - nice!
