Yee Ditty Haw Frame Up

A cute little cowpoke framed up in a stirrup. What could be more adorable?!

The skinny on the bits and pieces. A lone stirrup, a reel complete with hook and line, some craft paper or newsprint, and an acrylic magnet frame found at your local craft store. Along with these items, grab your scissors, 10 minutes and you are good to go!

My,my, my...Mighty Max is certainly a little man to be reckoned with! Print out a 2 x 2 sepia tone picture, trim, and mat on paper of your choice. Once this is completed simply slip inside the acrylic frame.

I was working with Elena, a new intern at JUNKMARKET and we were discussing how to suspend the frame from the stirrup. She asked if I had a fish hook. You can only imagine how surprised she was when I produced one in less than 10 seconds. Great idea Elena!

Here's how you hang it:

1. Cut the hook from the line.

2. Cut a small piece of line, loop it, and attach to back of frame with the adhesive backed magnet that comes with the frame.

3. Open hook, slip through loop, and close.

4. Tie hook to stirrup with another piece of line.

All done!
