I do love this instant camera very much. I have collected quite a lot of memories already. Just look, this was a photo which I made to add to this post right after making this holder. Now I have the holder covered in photos and I have more photos than I could fit. That is the only downside of this project. I have an idea of a different way to hang photos so I might do that soon, just need to get some supplies that I do not have right now.

I got a Fujifilm Instax 90 camera for Christmas. Such camera makes instant photos. There is something really different with the experience of taking a picture with an instant camera. You capture only the very special moments. Quickly I realised that these moments need a place in my room and decided to make a photo holder.I do love this instant camera very much.

Took me about 30 min, definitely not more.





Here are the materials that I used to make such holder:

I had several bamboo mats around the house. The blue one is an example of what I am talking about, this particular mat is used to put my brushes and paints on when I am creating something. One of such mats began to loosen up that is why I have these sticks. I did not throw them away, so they just waited for their time to become something interesting. I am sure you have something similar laying around that could be used on a similar project.

The other thing I used was this twine. You can decide to use ribbon or any kind of twine. I chose this one to go with a brown and natural theme of my bamboo pieces. I also like using this twine on other projects that I make. It adds some nice texture and I love the natural colour of it.

To glue everything together I am using a hot glue gun. Honestly, I can not imagine my crafting life without a glue gun. It is a perfect adhesive for such home decor projects. I used to struggle so much without a glue gun. Mine is a very cheap one, but it works well, so I am sure that you can also find some alternatives of this tool.

The last thing you will need is something to hang your photos with. You can use paper clips or even regular sized clothes pegs, but I found a tiny version of these and I think they look adorable. Wooden ones would look so good with that natural theme, but sometimes you just got to go with what you got. To be honest, I do not actually see them that obviously with all the photos hanged on.

The making process is as easy as you would think it is. Cut some twine and glue it like it is shown in a photo to make a hang for this photo holder.

Now adhere the pieces of twine onto two pieces of bamboo. You can add as much or as less of the strings as you want. I went with five. And this is it. The photo holder is very lightweight so I even mounted it on the wallpaper with a simple pin.
