Okay, so I didn't get framed, but I've got frames that I want to share with you! First, I have already mentioned that I have been working on decorating my getaway cottage. Also, I told you that I had some things of my grandmother's that I had reinvented. Sot the first project was a combo of the two. I was able to keep some of my grandmother's costume jewelry (if I forgot to mention my kids at school call me Ms. Bling) and incorporate it in my shabby chic decor. I found the oval frame which already had a puffy backing covered in pink velour and it was only $1. Then I cut an old black t-shirt and tucked it inside the frame to cover the pink. It made a nice background to show the jewelry. I added a few pieces of mine for balance. I placed another frame (25 cent yard sale find) around the outside and there you have it. It was a very simple project and has turned into one of my favorite projects to date.
Next, my other frame project is a baby gift for some friends. I guess you can already see that I am fond of frames. First, I sprayed the frame a color called watermelon, slightly distressed the edges, hot glued in the ribbon and added the hair bows. There you have it! I thought it turned out very cute and I hope they like it!!
I am thinking I may do a wall of frames in one of the bedrooms. Hmmm... I am working on linking up to other blogs! Cross your fingers!Peace!
