Baby Name Frame

Here is how I made these beautiful personalised baby gifts

Here is what you will need

Method

I use the box frames in IKEA all the time, they are a great size are light weight and affordable. Removing the mount from the frame I place the patterned paper on the inside securing it with tape. Next I put some ribbon along the bottom of the mount, this will hold the letters for the name.  Some double sided tape is good to hold the ribbon in place and I also fixed it into place at the back with tape. Next I put some string across the top of the mount like a clothes line, taped at the back as well.

Now it time to hang out the washing. I arranged 2 small pegs on the line and then attached the pre cut baby grow shape making sure it was in the centre of the mount. Once I was happy it was in the centre I secured it with some double sided tape. I also placed a small bit of tape on the pegs.

Next I arrange the letters on the ribbon at the bottom and secured in place with double sided tape. I made sure at this stage that everything was good position when the mount was added back to the frame. Lastly it was time to add the embellishments. I put 2 small buttons on the baby grow, held with double sided. Also put some buttons in the top right and left corners of the frame again held in place with double sided.

Lastly I added a pacifier embellishment. I used PVA glue to put this in place as it dries clear. I left to dry over night and the next day I assembled the frame and checked all was staying in place.
