Recently I found this yellow frame at a garage sale for $2. It was missing the glass or mirrors on the sides and one of the dividers wasn't connected, but it was well worth the $2!
I removed the hooks and spray painted it an Oregano color. I absolutely love Rust-oleum's 2x paints. The coverage is so good!
After I painted it, I reattached the divider that had come unattached.
I used one of my favorite graphics from The Graphics Fairy. I turned it in Picnik and copied it onto a piece of scrapbook paper.
I wrapped burlap around a piece of hardboard and hot glued the back. I used hot glue to attach this key to one of them.
And this "5" to another.
I bought the key and the "5" at Hobby Lobby.
I then put everything back in the frame, reattached the hooks and hung it up.
I'm really happy with it.
Thanks so much for your visit!

ReplyDeleteGosh, Pam! What a transformation on this piece. I love how you printed the graphic on scrapbook paper. That was so clever. And I've always been a fan of keys. Thanks for the tip about the spray paint. I'll look for it the next time I need some paint.
