Seattle Upcycled Frame
I finally did something with the photos from the trip hubby and I took to Seattle last summer. I was digging through my stash of papers when I came across my older Amy Tangerine papers by American Crafts. I love the map paper and knew that the blue was close to the blue in the photos so I went to work. I had the itch for an upcycled project so I dug through my stash of garage sale frames and found this one. I painted it to pull out the blue in the paper, added some twine then made my hanging tags. I used one sheet of paper and just embellished with some Remarks stickers and some Ormolu goodies. I picked up the clothespins at a Dollar Store. It went together very quickly and I love how it turned out. Not bad for an inexpensive home decor piece!
