TGIF! Right? The project that I've been working on is being given to my friend Kirstin tonight as her "moving" gift. She is leaving me and moving to Dallas but I guess that just calls for more road trips! So last weekend when we had our girls weekend we stopped at Bucee's and saw these really cute frames and Kirstin took a pic and showed it to me and said "I'm not paying $50 dollars for this, can you make this?" and I course said "YES!" I really had no idea what I was about to get myself into, but I think it turned out pretty darn CUTE! Not bad for my first run!
Well, I won't keep ya'll waiting any longer! Here it is and how I made it!
Step One - Gathered what I needed and set it out!
Step Two - Using brown paint, I painted the entire frame with just one coat! For the cross I bought them pre-cut at Michaels and put three of them together. Then also had a stamp that looked like iron work and just stamped it onto the cross with the brown paint and for the edges I just using some more brown paint all the way around!
Step Three - Adhered all the pretty stones with a hot glue gun and it worked well for me! Now it is finished! Isn't it so pretty?
Step Four - Wrapped it up of course! You don't want to spoil the surprise!
Have a FABULOUS FRIDAY all!
This is beautiful! I have seen these types of frames before, and you did a great job recreating it! =-) I am sure your friend Kirstin will love it.
