Kari has one of my very favorite blogs!I have a blog all about crafting, sewing, turning the old into new, being a mom, and my kids.
A few weeks ago I did a tutorial on how to make button earrings.
I needed a place to keep them.
So I just created this
Come along and I’ll show you how to make them.
Spray paint a old vintage frame antique white.
You can get the frames a places like goodwill.
They have antique white spray paint everywhere.
Take some vintage looking lace and lay it on top of your frame.
I got my lace at JoAnns.
Cut your lace out to the size of your frame.
While pulling your lace taut, staple your lace to the back of your frame.
Staple from side to side, and corner to corner.
After it’s stapled all the way around, hold your frame on it’s side and staple down toward the edges of the frame. Do this all the way around the inside of the frame. This makes the lace come forward in the frame and make the lace a little more taut.
Cut off your access lace and your done!
Thank you so much Kari for letting me stop by for the day!
Come visit me at Trey & Lucy anytime!
