Pin-ups for Sarah

I bought this clearanced frame at Tuesday Morning for 25 cents... YES only 25 cents, it was missing a couple decorative pieces, but overall- in great shape. I knew I could do something great with this, and wanted a cool gift for my friend Sarah, that has been helping me out with my son while I'm at work.


Here's how it started out... a girly purple

This is out of the packaging

I added about 4 coats of black craft paint with a sponge brush, to cover up the purple/flowers

I have a box of retro pinup girls from a tear away calendar. I found 3 that I liked, then cut them to size, and Modge Podged them into the squares.


Pretty cool decor for only 25 cents!!
