If you’re like most, you have hundreds if not thousands of pictures sitting pretty in the hard drive of your computer.

Here’s a quick, easy and inexpensive idea to motivate you to print some of those pictures and display them in your home or office.

Supplies:
Vase or container
Plaster of Paris
Plastic cup
Plastic spoon or knife
Pliers
Floral foam
Spanish Moss
Rebar wire

Step 1:
Find a vintage silver serving piece, a tea cup, tea pot or other container to suit your décor.

Step 2:
Mix up Plaster of Paris in a plastic cup and set aside.

Step 3:
Place a piece of floral foam in the bottom of your container.

Step 4:
Get a pair of pliers and twist some wire into swirls on one end.

Step 5:
Pour a small amount of plaster into the cup.

Step 6:
Stick the wires into the floral foam. 3-4 wires works best and alter the heights to allow for all the pictures to be visible.

Step 7:
Let the plaster dry.

Step 8:
Place a small amount of Spanish moss on top of the plaster to cover it.

Step 9: 
Insert photos into the wire to display and find the perfect spot to enjoy!
