have you made something nice using junk stuffs before?

homemade picture frame - Picture frames are usually made of soft or hard wood, although other materials are also used, including aluminum or polystyrene. A picture frame may be of any colour or texture, but gilding is common, especially on older frames. Some picture frames have elaborate mouldings on them, which may relate to the subject matter of the picture. The picture frame may contain a pane of glass or a plastic glass substitute such as Plexiglas, in order to protect the picture. Glass may be treated with various coatings, the most common being UV filters. Some glazings such as Denglas, Optium, and Museum glass have a coating which makes the glass partially non reflective and practically invisible under ideal lighting conditions.

i made picture frames out of junk sliding fasteners in our file cabinet and cutout pictures from an old calendar. i've uploaded a picture of the first one that i made a few hours ago. hehe. and they all looked nice after i placed all four of them in our wall beside the stairway. they were all colorful. the first one was made with red sliding fasteners, the second was black, the third was blue and the last one was yellow. hehe. now i can sleep soundly because i have just finished a job well done. =)
