Supplies Needed

My original vision for this project was to make an actual chalkboard inside a frame covered in moss and sticks. After I thought about it, I decided that a chalkboard printable would be so much easier. My biggest discovery when I was shopping for this project was finding peel and stick moss. I had no idea there was such a thing, but it’s fun, and super simple to use.

​Assembly Instructions

  • Measure the width of your frame, and cut 4 strips of the moss the same width. Trim the length of the strips if necessary.
  • Peel the backing off, and carefully adhere the moss strips to the frame.
  • With your glue gun, apply pinecones, acorns, and sticks to your frame. I started at the corners and worked out. You can embellish just the corners, or fill up the entire frame.
  • I’ve linked to all the items needed for this fall craft in the list above. These supplies are also available at your local craft store. Definitely try to gather pinecones, acorns, and sticks from your yard or other outdoor area. Look for frames at a thrift store, or flea market. 
  • TIP: if you use natural acorns or pinecones from your yard, make sure to kill any bugs first. Put your items in a resealable bag, and place the bag in the freezer for a few days.

​More Frame Decoration Ideas

  • Purchase a set of picture frames and art prints, embellish the frames to your taste, and create a gallery wall. Focal points are important, and a gallery wall is perfect.  
  • Create living room wall decor with a modern look by placing the embellished frames on a picture ledge. 
  • Display your children’s or grandchildren’s artwork in decorative frames around the house. This not only adds a personal touch, but is an excellent way to make your home decor reflect the talents and interests of your family.
  • Shadow boxes are deep frames that allow you to display 3D objects or memorabilia. Create a shadow box to showcase keepsakes, collections, or sentimental items.
