When I made it a few years ago, I used a sheet of cardboard and paintings from Norman Rockwell for the back ground. You can see all the thumbtacks on it.

| I didn't have enough ribbon so I found some 'wrapping kind' ribbon |
After a while, I realized the paper and ribbon wouldn't really help the picture stick....duh..so a change of plans led me to weave strips of leftover fabric through the ribbon for a background. I was too lazy to start all over again.

| sorry about the angle. |
Once I made silver strips of ribbon one way, I wove white strips through the silver.

| The finish product |
It may not look new or anything and it may only last a little while, but for now or at least until I try making one with a kit or directions, it'll do!! It was fun making :-)
Now its back to my list! Got some cleaning and odds and ends to finish :-) Maybe making some oatmeal cookies too!! As for tomorrow, I'm gonna go hiking!!!!
