valentine craft #4-repurposed frame

i saw something like this on another blog and wondered if i had the things around the house to create something similar.  this is what i came up with.


i forgot to take a before pic of the metal frame before i painted it red, so i just took a shot of the backside.  i found this frame at my mom's house in some boxes of my old stuff from college.  it is such a cool baroque looking frame, i knew i'd want to do something with it.

i spray painted the frame red

added some polka dot material and a white heart doile i found stashed away

and viola!  a cute decoration for valentine's day

i put it in the kitchen next to a red candle (from christmas) and an apothecary jar full of heart candies (which will not last long in my house, i am sure)
