Introduction: Sunglasses Holder/Frame
I wanted a way to decorate using sunglasses... Because my daughters new bedspread had sunglasses on it. I couldn't quite find anything I loved so I came up with this!
Step 1:
Gather adorable sunglasses.
Step 2:
The people that lived in my house prior left a bunch of old frames behind. So I had a few free ones to choose from! Remove whatever backing and also the glass contained in the frame. (I saved the glass for future projects). Paint frame your desired color. I used a purple and then added glitter!
Step 3:
Gather a staple gun, and some thin jewelry making wire. It's hard too see but mine is fuchsia to match the pink and purple theme.
Step 4:
Now here comes the staple gun! For each place the wire is bound to the frame I used three staples.
Start by having about 3-4 fingers width of overlap on either aide of the frame. The first staple goes close to the outside perimeter.
Step 5:
Once the staple is in bend back the extra wire and staple again, but this time on the inner perimeter.
Step 6:
Bend that back as well and get ready for your last staple!
Step 7:
Staple in between existing staples and bend the wire back once more! Repeat this on the other side as well.
Step 8:
Here's what it looked like on my frame (you can see how ugly it was prior to painting) and for the sizing of this frame and the cute tiny kid frames I had three rows of wire.
Step 9:
Flip your beautiful frame around and add your glasses! Functional art!
