DIY: Accordion Picture Frame From DVD Cases

Dinner and a movie? I prefer crafting and a movie! Next time you're watching your favorite film, transform the DVD case into a handmade picture frame. DVD cases make great frames, with their thin black border and clear plastic cover that creates a glass-like shine for your photos. Attach two or more cases to create an accordion-like frame, perfect to display on that empty mantle!

Materials: DVD Cases — Cards, Decorative Paper and/or Photos — Small Hinges (found at craft or hardware stores) — Small Brads — Glue Stick — Glue Gun

Steps:
• Pull out the paper jackets from the DVD cases and turn them over so the white side is facing up.
• Using a glue stick, attach your photos/decorative paper to the white side of the paper.
• Slide them back into the cases.
• Insert the brads into the hinges.
• Using a glue gun, attach the hinges onto the edges of the DVD cases to connect them.
