What do you do with left over wallpaper?
Wood frames come in many shapes and sizes.
This one caught my eye and I knew I had to have it.
I lightly sanded the frame. I then painted the frame black. Here I used a petite like me fleur de lis stencil. I stenciled all four sides to really glitz it up with gold paint. Now for the fun part of the project. *I used a wallpaper border. (So quick and EASY to do!)
*Rethink using wallpaper or wallpaper borders in different ways.
Or left over fabric.
Have fun crafting!

This is SO CLEVER! I would never have guessed you used wallpaper.
What a creative idea. It definitely does not look like wallpaper.

Hi Dee! Thanks for visiting me. I love your frame makeover! I noticed the last time I went treasure hunting at Goodwill, they had packages of wallpaper borders. Never occurred to me that I should check them out! Thanks for sharing such a creative idea!
I did that in my kitchen so it would match my trim! I tell you girlfriend, we think alike! Yours is GORGEOUS!!! I've got something special on my Whimsical Musings blog about an upcoming book if you want to see it...xo Cin
P.S. It sounds so awful back there and I just pray that your friend is getting better.

I'm happy I stopped by your blog. I have some border paper leftover and I can't see myself throwing it away, I'm sure I can do something similar. I'm a new follower, please visit when you have a chance. http://decoratingwcents.blogspot.com
