LEARN HOW TO MAKE THIS BOTANICAL HANGING PRINT IN JUST A MATTER OF MINUTES. IT’S EASY, SO CHEAP AND IS SUPER CUTE TOO!

Cheap and Easy, DIY Botanical Hanging Print

This post contains affiliate links which means I make a small commission at no cost to you.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

Click the links below to see what I used.

  • Saw (I used a miter box)
  • 1 x 2 board (from your local hardware store)
  • Instant Wall Art book
  • Twine
  • Staple gun and staples
  • Paint or stain (optional)

CUT YOUR WOOD

First, I measured my art. Since the botanical print was just under 8″ wide, I went ahead and cut my 1 x 2 board in 8.5″ pieces. I wanted the wood to stick out just a little further than the print.

ATTACH THE PRINT

Once I cut all of the pieces, I took the print and staple gun and stapled the art onto the back of the board.

As you can see below, I stapled it at the very top edge of the wood.

SECURE THE TWINE

Twine was the ribbon of choice for this project. There’s just something about twine. I can never have enough of it.

I measured the twine to the length that I wanted, tied a knot on both ends, and stapled each side to the wood, just above the knot.

FINISHING THE WOOD (OPTIONAL)

While this part is optional, I would do this before attaching the print. I left mine raw for the time being, but knowing me, I’ll have it painted white soon.

If you choose paint, maybe pick a chalk paint (or flat paint) that coordinates with the botanical print.

When you choose a stain, just pick your favorite wood tone.

 

Assuming you have the correct tools on hand, you can make at least 3 of these botanical hanging prints for under $20 (and have a whole bunch of botanical prints left to use for other projects.

ANOTHER IDEA FOR THE BOTANICAL PRINT BOOK

This book is a perfect thing to have around the house. It has so many options and for such a great price.

Another idea is to frame them in a grouping (I personally like 6 frames, two rows of 3).

I was trying to post this with original audio of m I was trying to post this with original audio of me explaining each item and my thoughts on the price etc etc but apparently I don’t have that capability yet on IG… so, enjoy this reel and just know that I had a lot more to say. 😂
A little IG vs reality for ya. Swipe to see the mo A little IG vs reality for ya. Swipe to see the more realistic view (which is really not bad at all 😂).
I feel like my house is just constantly a mess, no matter how hard I try. Anyone else? It feels like I’m always behind, and to be honest, it bothers me a lot. It overwhelms me and stresses me out. It keeps me from being content and present. Between things constantly being broken (hello middle child) and just too much stuff in general.
Here’s what I’m working on to simplify and calm the chaos.
1. I’ve been removing all toys that don’t get played with often. We currently have magnatiles, Duplos, and race cars out. The rest have been moved to storage in the basement for the moment. We’ll see what we keep as my kids do sometimes notice toys they’re missing and ask for them.
2. I’ve been ruthlessly getting rid of stuff - whether donate or trash. If we don’t absolutely love it, or we have multiples, or no one touches it, or we have a huge pile of random papers and crafts. Gone. 😂 it’s so relieving.
3. I often have artwork and decor laying around because I don’t fully know where it’s going yet. I’ve been removing anything that doesn’t serve a purpose and have been putting it in basement storage. No point having it sit there and clutter. I’ll go get it when I’m ready to hang the picture or use the decor.
4. I’ve been re-assessing where we need more storage. I replaced a dresser that didn’t functional well with a $50 homeschool cabinet from FB marketplace and it’s been so much better.
5. As I remove things from our every day view, I’m noticing the ability to better enjoy the everyday messes and real life, because it isn’t so out of control and overwhelming.

I hope this is encouraging for mamas in the same boat ✨
