For sure, everyone has old jeans: it's a pity to throw them away, but there is nowhere to use them especially. Here they, just, will become the basis for our new photo frame. In addition, prepare another thick cardboard, polymer glue, pencil, ruler, scissors and a brush for glue.
As a template, take any photo of the desired size (this photo, for example, 15X21), to make the frame in a standard format. Circle the image on all sides and cut off the excess cardboard (at least 4-5 cm should be backed off from each side of the photo).
Cut jeans into narrow strips of different lengths (the size of each individual circle will depend on this, in fact).
Now grease the edges of the strips with glue and twist them into a roll. The glue will not allow the braid to disintegrate inside and keep it outside.
Next, grease one of the flat sides of these “spins” with glue and glue all the parts to the cardboard one by one. Such blanks will require a lot.
Attention! When cutting, jeans are very frayed, so there will be a lot of garbage and small strings. Do not cut the fabric on the couch or carpet, it is better to prepare a “working field” for yourself, which you then just wipe out or brush.
After all the jeans blanks “fell into place”, cut off the protruding corners of the cardboard along the entire outer contour of our frame and allow a little time to dry.
And when the sticky substance has completely hardened, cut out the bottom circles at the bottom along all the inner sides of the frame, slightly lifting the cardboard. Now the photo easily enters the resulting space.
Finally, the original photo frame is ready. If you attach a loop on the back, then the picture can even be hung on the wall.
