It took me a few months but I finally finished this project. Here are the before and after. Excuse the before. I'm spring cleaning while in process of putting these up on the wall. So my before doesn't always look like this! My husband was a little anxious to get this project started. So I quickly took the before picture.
The finished project are 16 x 16 photos placed in clipped photo frames. I thought about using a thin canvas wrap but decided against it. Instead I can replace these photos through the years. TFL!
