Picture Frame (medium, self-standing kind)

• Keep in the kitchen and slip a recipe card into it when cooking to keep it clean.
• Use for storage of awards/pictures you no longer wish to display. Several will fit in a frame. Store the frame flat in a closet.
• If you are bored with the look of a wooden frame, stain it a different color and reuse it.
• Let children decorate a wooden frame with paint and then allow them to hang it in their room with their own art work inside it.
• Save the glass and backing of standard size frames for when others break.
• Use for hanging emergency phone numbers and instructions in the basement or garage.
• Replace the glass with a mirror and hang it for a new look.
• Make a small picture frame (wallet size or 3x5) into a coaster. Glue something soft (material, etc) to the back so it does not scratch your table.
• Use the cardboard backing as a fire starter.
• Glue your child's artwork to the cardboard backing of a picture frame. Display on a wall or as a stand-up without the need for a frame.
• If a wooden frame is broken, simply glue or nail it back together.
