* Ikea “preframed art” fix

Posted on March 16th, 2005 by maitreya. Filed under Projects with Instructions.


Our apartment is like an Ikea showroom. It got even worse once we realized that the nice Stenbrohult frame we bought was really “preframed art” with the pictures glued on. We’ve had it up for like a year before finally fixing it last night. Measured the holes, printed out the pictures sized to fit (which are pieces of a panorama pic my husband took), cut them out, then glued them on top of the offending ones. You can’t even tell.

    To bad about the photo of the frame (not easy to take pics of glas with a flash) - but a great idea! I like it.

    I’m gonna tell my boyfriend to fix us a mountain on the wall! :-)

    I enjoy your blog very often! Thanks!
