I made a light switch cover thing out of my boyfriends picture:


It just looks crooked in the picture. It's not crooked at all.


I don't know if this is posted anywhere but.

Materials:
-scissors
-picture
-plain light switch cover
-old folder with plastic cover
-pen
-ruler

1. Just unscrew the light switch cover.

2. Make sure the cover will show all of the person's face and when you put in the screws it won't go throught their face if you are using a picture of a person.

3. Put the light switch cover on the back of the picture. Trace it with a pen make sure you trace the square where the switch goes through.

4. Cut out the picture but leave 1/2 an inch or less around where you traced on each side. and cut out the square in the middle.

5. Clip the corners so that the picture will fold around the light swith cover.

6. Find an old folder with a clean plastic cover on the front.

7. Trace the already cut picture onto the plastic.

8. Cut out plastic.

9. Tape the corners of the plastic and the picture down so it wraps around the light switch cover.

10. Poke holes for screws with sharp scissors. using only one screw will hold it up.

11. Then screw in light switch cover and you're done.

I hope I explained that well.
