DIY Inexpensive Wooden Poster Frame

I absolutely love this DIY!  This could be used in practically every room of your house.  In the kitchen, game room, kids room, or office.  My favorite idea is to frame your children’s work or art that is brought home from school.  The directions are simple and are written below!! I hope you have as much fun making this as I have had sharing the idea!
