Families Are Quilts Frame

I'm sharing this project with you today

as my design team project for 

Love To Craft.

We are a month long anything goes craft challenge

(so long as it is family friendly)

We'd love to see what craft(s) you made this month!

I came across the plastic collage frame (above)

for $2 at the local thrift store.

The glass pieces were missing,

there were a few tiny scuffs on the

black plastic and the back cover was well worn,

but I thought it was worth it.

It had potential.

I started by base coating the frame with a light gray

chalk paint. Once that was dry, I brushed on white

acrylic craft paint. I wasn't going for total coverage
or keeping it nice and neat.

In even did a bit of sanding on some of the raised areas.

I wanted it to look worn, old.

I made my own digital word art to fit the round frame.

I added a small silver paper punched and crimped heart

in the space below the printed words.

A small piece of quilted fabrics was put in another opening.

The fabric was mounted over chipboard with batting in between

                                      Photographs will be added to the remaining three frames.

Thanks for looking, have a great day!
