I am totally kicking myself for not taking before pictures of this...I was just so darn anxious to turn it into something amazing! I found this for $1 at the thrift store. It had a really ugly picture of Precious Moments dolls at the top and it was red. I was giddy about it as I brought it up to the register...sometimes I wonder what the cashiers are thinking when I bring things up to the counter so excited about them. "Man...I bet this chick's house is HIDEOUS." or "Man...this chick has horrible taste! UGH!"
But who cares. I thrive off of making beautiful things out of junk!
This is my latest creation! I painted the frame gray and antiqued it. Then I Mod Podged some paper over the ugly picture. Then, I cut out some vinyl letters with my handy dandy Silhouette
and stuck them on. I finished it off with some of my rolled fabric rosettes and some ribbon and that's it! This whole project only took me about an hour!
Hmmm...now I just have to get brave enough to write on it. If only my handwriting was as cute as the font....

SOO cute! You sure have an eye for transforming things.
Oh, you have a silhouette. I want one. And cute project too, by the way.
So cute! I haven't written on the chalkboard by my front door because I can't bear to mess up the perfect black.
Fantastic!!! Love, love, LOVE this!! I might be copying this exactly!!
How cute is that?! I know what you mean about handwriting though...mine is terrible. I should be a man or a doctor...but alas I have neither excuse.
Those fabric rosettes are ADORABLE!
Love this! So very cute!
