Looking for a fun way to display your favorite pics? Try making these color dipped photos and hang them from a photo "clothesline." I got the idea from this blog.
Materials:
*Paint in various colors
*Glitter paint
*Paintbrush
*Photos
*Painter's tape
Directions:
*To give photos the old-style Polaroid look, crop photos to squares and leave extra white space around them during the printing.
*Using painter's tape, cover the part of the white space immediately below the image.
*Paint the bottom of the photo below the painter's tape using one of the colors of paint. Set aside to dry.
*Once dry, add a second coat of paint if necessary. Finish off with a coat of glitter paint.
*Carefully peel off the painter's tape. Maybe this happened just because my tape was old and had been living above the heat register, but for some reason the tape did not peel off easily and left behind a sticky residue. If this happens, carefully wash off as much of the sticky residue as you can with soap and water and then cover the photos using self-adhesive laminate.
