Nested Photo Frame

Here's a fun photo craft project that you'll want to make several different versions of! It's a cool way to show off your photography skills and also take a photo frame beyond just another plain jane frame.

Before you begin this project, there are a couple of things to note. This project works best using a wide edged frame, atleast a couple inches of frame around the photo. Also, you will need to take special consideration in the photo you use. I started this project using a closeup of my niece with her hair blowing in the wind. While it was an interesting photo, the frame opening cut into her forehead and it looked like I was doing mad scientist stuff to her head.

Supplies
– Photo frame (mine was for a 4x6 photo)
– Matte photo paper
– Black Spray Paint
– Aleene's Fast Grab Tacky Spray
– Matte spray finish for Photos
– Xacto or paper cutter
– Ruler
– Pencil
– Photo editing program like Photoshop

Step 1 Measure the frame

Measure and notate the overall dimensions of your photo frame and the distance of the photo opening from the top and bottom of your frame. The frame I used below was from Michaels. On a side note, I actually designed the Michaels insert you see below on this frame. It's one of the many types of projects I do in my "day job".
