Instructions
Carefully use a table saw to cut a piece of wood 5x7" or stop by your local hardware store and ask them to cut it for you (this is the best way to go).
Use a 150 grit piece of sandpaper to sand all sides of your wood block, then switch to a 220 grit piece of sand paper and sand again. Use a piece of tack cloth to remove any dust from sanding.
Choose a color best that best suites your room style and paint the wood block with 2 coats of paint and let dry.
Cut a 15.5" piece of ribbon and wrap it around the bottom of your painted wood block, leaving about 1/2" of empty space at the bottom. Carefully hammer in an upholstery tack on each side of the front to hold the ribbon in place. Hot glue the ribbon ends together in the back.
Slide a 4x6" picture into the ribbon at the bottom of the painted wood block and set anywhere in your home.
