FRAMED!

Remember how I’m a big fan of buying napkins at Pier 1 for their patterns/colors? And then they sit in my crafting stash and I never find a use for them?

Well, I finally did something with one of them.

The frames were on sale at Wally World for 75 cents and they were white. I painted them black (because I’m painting everything black… just wait) and moved the glass frame around on the flatware print napkin to find what section would fit perfectly. I framed up the sections with double stick tape and voila! Fresh framed art for the kitchen!

I haven’t hung it up yet but as soon as I do, I’ll get this post updated with a pic. We are looking at a house tonight and then we are off to the ball park this evening for softball league (not me, it’s the beau)… hopefully the weather is nice where you are this Tuesday!

P.S. Please excuse the awesome pics of the frames… I always think my iPhone is taking great pics until I put it up against a photo taken with an actual camera.
