I love the big frames, that hold several photos. I look for ways to include pictures of family in my decor. One thing that I’ve found is that these frames can be expensive. So when I saw this 15″x15″ frame on sale for $3.99, my wheels started spinning. I could paint it, decoupage it or I could use my Silhouette SD machine and create something personal. (For some reason, I have been afraid to cut vinyl, crazy I know. But I was on a roll this weekend and got brave!)
The paper was already peeling off, I guess that’s one reason I got such a deal on it! After I removed as much of the paper, that I could. I painted it with 2 coats of Old White~Annie Sloan Chalk paint.
I printed a couple of pictures, my printer was running out of ink, so they look a little pink! (Must buy ink today!)
I’m going to hang it on the wall in the Blue room at the lake.
Have you noticed how much I L.O.V.E hydrangeas!
(Must include in asmanyphotosasIcan)
Enough already?
Go ahead and buy those frames, the ones on sale, the ones with a little damage, the ones with colors nobody can use! Even if you don’t have a way to cut vinyl there’s always Mod Podge and scrapbook paper. (The way I transformed my “W”!)
Hope you’re having a great weekend!
Thanks for sharing with the newbie party. Love this idea…did you hot glue the starfish? I love that you personalized it and the font you chose it so perfect.
Great makeover! That looks so great, I can’t believe its the same frame. Great redo, and I love the vignette.
I love this frame…and I even like that the pictures are a little pink ( I seem to never have ink, so this look is growing on me..hehehe) oh, so happy I found your blog today…I feel very inspired!

I actually like the pink tint to the pictures. Great redo, and I love the vignette.
