The framed picture collages are that of Robert Pattinson and Shia LaBeouf. These are the first two and certainly not the last ones I will create. Of course, you can create any theme of pictures for your collage. and you can resources from anywhere such as the internet, magazines, or newspaper. You can complete them in one afternoon, and it's totally worth it and a good excuse for getting to see more of a celeb you like. :]

first you need the frame. I got my frame from Dollar Tree (that's right, 1 buck!) It's just a simple cardboard backing design and a plastic sheet as the cover with four prongs that hold the picture together. It's cheap, but it certainly gets the job done. And since it's 11x14" there's plenty of room to get several pictures in the frame.
The next step is probably the funnest... you get to search for tons of pictures of your theme! (i choose my men, for this one I went with Robert Pattinson). I simply went to Photobucket and copied a bunch of different sized pics of him and put them on microsoft word, so they'd all be together. Don't make it a collage already. you get to cut out the individual pics and literally piece them together to form the collage pic. I simply use the back the photo frame paper, since it's white already and just tape the pictures together. you don't need special paper or anything. so easy.
Once you have completed you picture collage, mapped out where the pictures go to fix together, you can tape them or glue them (i prefer taping, so there's no bubbling from the glue). Then you simply cover the plastic sheet over the design, and sandwich your pic between the cardboard backing and the protective sheet. Then you put the four prongs in their place. Then all you have to do is find a place for it to go, so you can see if whenever you pass by. :] all it does is cost one dollar and some ink from your computer.
