How to Display Old Fishing Lures

Building a display for old fishing lures is a great alternative to just leaving them stored in a box or throwing them in the trash. You can build a display that you can be proud to hang in your home.

Items Needed:

• Box photo frame


• Fishing lures


• Theme decorative items


• Piece of cardboard


• Scissors


• Hot glue gun


• Hot glue sticks

1. Organize your old fishing lures. Divide these by color, size or type of lure. This will make it easier for you to decide on a theme for the display.


2. Cut a piece of cardboard to the size of the box photo frame.


3. Glue the lures on the cardboard. Use the hot glue gun to position the lures on the cardboard. Make a creative design.


4. Decorate the cardboard. Use decorative items that match the fishing lure type or colors to give your display a distinct look. The hot glue gun can be used to keep these items in place.


5. Place the cardboard in the box photo frame. Put the glass over the cardboard.


6. Clean the photo frame glass. Most of the time these frames get finger prints all over the glass. Be sure to wipe these away or the look of your display can suffer.


7. Hang your fishing lure display. This can be placed on the wall of a den or bedroom for an outdoor them. If you do not want it on the wall, it can make a great end table or desk decoration.
