Hi everyone! I have a fun little scrap wood project to share with you today. It’s so easy you can tackle it during the kids’ nap time! It’s a picture frame for your Fujifilm Instax Mini photos! Isn’t it fun?

A few weeks ago, I spoke at the SNAP! Conference in Salt Lake City, Utah and one of the sponsor’s gifts to attendees was this cute Fujifilm Instax Mini 8 instant film camera.
When I got home from the conference, I gave the camera to my daughter and she’s been snapping away ever since. Her room is littered with all of these tiny photographs, so I had to figure out a way for her to display them. Here’s what I came up with:
Because the Instax mini film comes in packs of 10 or 20, I made the frame so that it would fit 10 photos. Here’s a quick sketch of the dimensions so you can make your own. You’ll need some scrap 1×2 boards and a piece of 3/4″ plywood.
Simply cut the pieces as shown, then use wood glue and 1-1/4″ brad nails to attach the frame to the plywood. Easy peasy.
I bought these mini bulldog clips from Hobby Lobby and super-glued them to the frame. Finally, I attached a sawtooth picture hanger to the back and hung the frame up on the wall.
Now my little lady has a fun display for her mini photos and she can switch them out as often as she wants!
Thanks for reading, friends. If you like this project, I would love for you to share it. Be sure to PIN IT so you don’t forget it!

I’m going to try making this frame. The instructions seem easy to follow, and the finished product looks great. I might add a little bit of paint or personalization to make it my own.
