So gather your favorite snapshots and get creative with this delightful DIY project that will surely spark joy every time you look at it.

For this rustic photo display I started with a left over piece of cedar fence picket, and gave it a quick sanding.

I dry brushed some acrylic turquoise colored paint on the cedar picket leaving some of the wood showing through.

Next I dry brushed a little black acrylic paint.

Then a little white acrylic paint.

Once dry I wrapped about 2′ of wire around the bottom portion of the cedar picket. Using pliers I twist the wires together on the back, trimmed ends and tucked under.

Then I wrapped approximately 2′ of wire around the top portion of the wood photo holder.

Flip over, twist wires together to hold the wire in place, trim ends and tuck under.

I added a few fabric flowers that I had made at an earlier time to the bottom of the rustic photo display.

Add a picture and that’s it, you have a rustic photo holder to display your favorite photo.
