instagram frame DIY

A few weeks ago I ordered some adorable tiny Instagram prints and have been trying to think of a cute way to display them ever since. A picture frame clothes line sounded fun, so I started creating and ended up with a fun display for our bedroom. I like that I can easily change out…
