D.I.Y. - Picture Keepers
School is back in session, but your locker could use some decoration. Picture frames and bulletin boards are a must have if you want your locker to look good! Both picture frames and bulletin boards are costly, but we can show you a cheap alternative using things that you can find at home.
This bulletin board alternative is BLPA-approved, and it allows for easy removal. This picture keeper can also be hung up in your room. It can hold the drawings or certificates you feel like displaying.
Hanging pictures and certificates in lockers is hard to do and even harder to keep track of. The unique design of the Picture Keeper will be very easy to keep track of since it is only piece. The Picture Keeper will impress friends with its amazing design.
The Picture Keeper makes lockers cleaner and neater. Because the it is in one piece, it takes away the hassle of putting separate pictures in your locker. The Picture Keeper can also be used to hold keys, drawings, and jewelry.
With proper assembly, you can have a convenient way to display your papers and pictures to your preference. Customization is key to achieving a positive attitude in school. Even though school is very tiring, it’s nice to have something that can hold achievements and pictures to continue inspiring you!
