Patriotic Project

In the guys' Senior year, they took a Government trip to Washington, DC. Brandon came home with a parchment poster of the "Congrefs of the United States". Of course, the size was not a standard format and needed a frame that was 24" X 28". I searched high and low and could never locate a frame of this size that wasn't custom and .....yea, very pricey.

So, this nice parchment poster has been stuck in the corner waiting for its opportunity for a proper display. Finally, I hit upon a solution.

Supplies:

24 X 36 poster frame
2 spools of patriotic ribbon
2 glue sticksI glued three rows of ribbon horizontally across the top and bottom of the frame mat and one row vertically along each side. Then I placed the parchment poster over the edges of the ribbon. Here is the finished product.
Pretty decent result for less than $30 versus the cost of a custom frame!
