Are your blank walls in need of a little personality? There’s no better way to show off your creative side and refresh your space than handmade wall art. For an elegant final touch, add a DIY wood frame to highlight your masterpiece.
With Loctite® Power Grab® Ultimate Crystal Clear, constructing your frame is a breeze. Simply size the wood, glue it securely together (without even using clamps!) and hang your finished art on the wall. This simple project is a great way to spend an afternoon with your kids, or even a date night in with your partner.
Our friend Bryan (@beginninginthemiddle), supervised by his wife Catherine, turned this project into a daddy-daughter activity. Rather than another unapproved mural drawn on their household walls, Bianca and Bryan teamed up to create a beautiful piece of framed art that now hangs proudly in Bianca’s room!
