Welcome your friends and family into your home with this sophisticated square frame project. We applied a 12” hollow square to the acrylic insert to add a touch of color and bring more focus into the expression. It also pulls in the colors from the decorative paper and ribbon to unify the finished project.
Tips & Tricks: Decorative Paper with the Square Frame
Decorative paper is a great way to easily change the look and feel of your square frame without switching out the expression. Simply tape the edges of the paper to the back of the frame. When you want to change things up, switch out the paper and the ribbon for a quick makeover that leaves the expression you love intact.
