Fancy Weathered Frame
After discovering Americana's Weathered Wood, I have been completely inspired. I have always loved the look of anything Shabby Chic, and this stuff makes it more than easy to create. I took an old, slightly unsightly frame, a couple of my favorite paint colors, Weathered Wood, ribbon and some sparkle...
To make this!
To use the Weathered Wood, you simply apply a base coat of acrylic paint...
Then paint on an even layer of the Weathered Wood...
Then another light coat of your top paint choice. As you are painting, the top layer begins to crackle, giving your frame an awesome texture.
Now to finish it up, I wanted to add a little 'chic' touch. I simply hot glued a sparkle-ly button onto a complimentary ribbon choice, and hot glued both to the frame.
This was the final result...
The easiest little gift for many on your list. Christmas may be over, but don't you have a year full of birthdays, appreciations, etc. to look forward to?
I'll be linking to these parties this week. Happy Thursday everyone!
