As we told you earlier, we pick often rocks on our travels. Some of them we painted on, see more about it here . Today there will be holiday plaques.

You need deep frames, as these *, paper to use as wallpaper and glue.

We've done a little different on our paintings, Freya and me. I like to mount my stuff on cutting boards, or panels as they are also known, then you get a good distance.

Freya likes color and pattern and choose instead a cardboard paper with the press.

The principle is the same - cut to a background, paste on a few choice items from the trip and frame. The frames serve several purposes, and we see our resminnen every day and also collects the dust does not in any case.

Mom Karen resminnen looks like this.

Freya resminnen looks like this! Are not they lovely!

* It seems that Claes Olson has removed these frames out of its range. IKEA has deep frames in their Rib-series . We have not even tried them but think they should work.

      Thank you! There is little disagreement in the family about whose paintings that looks best. It is fortunate that one of us has their own room ;)

    What great vacation memories! As usual, I am inspired to thousands and want to get started right away. Now I'll just figure out which stone and shell that was from what country : O D.

    Oh, so many nice things you have on the walls! I also collect a whole lot of memories when we travel but are too poor to do any of them since. Now, I am inspired!

    I can not get up any link regarding the limits ... I've been looking for deep frames.
    A phenomenally nice way to take care of all the fine shells and stones as well as just WANT come home and they deserve better than to be lying in a small plastic bag of garish color ...

      Thanks Caroline I buy panels in an artist's shop called Matton. Think the best bet is to ask in shops selling art materials. Good Luck!
