Here's a few pics of my photo cube project. Ok this is the last of my DIY projects.
UPDATED INFO: Since several ladies have asked me questions regarding this project, I just wanted to say that I added in progress pictures to my LIW photo album (under photo cube). I even included a picture of what batting was since a lot of people (including me before this project) had no idea what it was. As an FYI - I spray painted the frames with Silver Metallic paint so that they would look like metal, but they are wood (easier to work with than the metal). To see the photo album go to Community then Wedding Photo Albums and then select JP&EP to view my album.
If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Thanks, I followed most of the instructions that are in Azoodie's photo cube thread. What actually helped me the most was a picture from SFP214's photo album which showed the project in progress so I was able to get a visual of how to connect the frames.
I bought the bottom piece of wood at AC Moore and it has a lazy susan thing that is attached at the bottom so that it can turn easily. I also bought the frames at AC Moore on Saturday; there was a frame sale so each frame was $3.99.
Honestly, I thought the project would be much harder but I was able to complete it in 2 days.

The top is a piece of styrofoam with cardboard attached to it (I used small screws, some people use a glue gun). I cut a diagonal slit through the styrofoam and cardboard. The styrofoam is wrapped in batting to give it that cushion look, and then I wrapped the whole piece with the fabric and pulled the fabric tight from the slit and taped it down underneath.
