This is a super simple DIY, but one that I think can make a difference! I’ve looked at these frames from Amazon for $12, and they were sold at Urban Outfitters for over $20 but you can make them for much cheaper.

DIY Frame Tools

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • Wood rods (you can get them from the craft wood sections in Lowes/Menards)

  • Twine

  • Staple Gun

So you can find these sticks at Lowes/Menards for cheap. Like a $3 total. The ones I specifically bought were more of a styrofoam wood. I believe you also can buy them at Hobby Lobby. They have a bunch of different sizes, so you can choose the thickness. You then can cut it to the length of your poster. Because the rods aren’t that thick, I just used scissors.

Then cut a piece of twine based on the location on the rod that you want the look of! You can staple it to make it look like you would want. I recommend stapling like this so that the twine doesn’t slip through.

Finally, if you are hoping to use the print again elsewhere, you may want to tape or find a more temporary way to connect the print to the wood pieces. However, my print was pretty old so I just stapled it to the wood pieces.

And voila! Really simple, but it makes a big difference in making the poster or print more official or intentional looking!
