Hello, happy Monday!
Today I want to share a really easy, creative, DIY, thrift store flip, turning old picture frames into trays for your home and entertaining.
This first tray, was a beat-up wood frame that I sanded, painted black, added some cute watermelon wrapping paper under the glass, and some simple handles.
Really cute for summer, so colorful, so whimsy.
I love whimsy!
The second tray is quite different.
Forgot to take a before photo, but it was all wood, with a picture decoupaged on one side.
Removed the picture, cleaned up the wood, and sanded both sides.
I stained one side of the wood insert, and I decided to paint the other side with chalkboard paint.
Added some really nice handles, and I was finished.
This frame was a really unique thrift store find, that was turned into a one of a kind tray.
The fact that it now has a reversible insert is amazing.
Turning frames into trays is so simple.
Next visit, or maybe your first thrift store visit, take a look at all the inexpensive frames, some are new, and try creating a tray.
Endless possibilities using paper, fabric, or even photos under the glass, a little paint, and some wonderful handles. Hobby Lobby has an entire row of handles and knobs.
Gifts?
Have a creative week, love to everyone!
