DIY - Photo Centerpieces!

Candle Lit Centerpiece Picture Frames!

Directions:

They consist of three hinged photo frames set around votive candles. The black-and-white photos are printed onto ecru-colored vellum paper, which is translucent enough for the images to be visible by candlelight.

Disassemble three like-sized frames, setting aside their fronts and discarding their backings. Paint or stain wooden frames desired color; let dry.
Upload or scan photographs into a computer.
With editing software, make the images black and white, and resize them to fit your frames. Print them onto vellum paper with an ink-jet printer.
Slip the images into the frames. Using cloth tape, hinge frames together to form a triangle.
Stand frames around a candle in a protective glass holder.
