Craft Binge

I have totally been on a crafting binge.

It's been kind of nice actually.

I picked up these two vintage picture frames at a local thrift store for a total of $6.

Please don't tell my BFF Goodwill that I cheated on her and shopped elsewhere, K?

These two pictures were solid wood with a beautiful mother of pearl background and were dated 1962 on the back.

I totally fell in love with the mother of pearl background. The wooden people nailed to the front...not so much.

Whoever attached the people apparently were concerned that they would fall off somewhere along the way, before the end of time, because they were on there good.

They finally came off, kicking and screaming, not literally because that would have been very creepy but they were off.

The frames got a face lift compliments of an American Accents Canyon Black spray paint can wielded by Corey.

I used my cricut to cut out letters and then glued them off. A thick, textured layer of modpodge over the entire thing finished it off.

I so love the way they turned out!

This could totally be done with really cool scrapbooking paper for the background.

You wouldn't need mother of pearl pictures. Because, how would you ever find any? But if you do, tell me. So I can try to talk you out of them.

Just kidding.

Kinda.
