trash to treasure art

A few months ago I picked up this round picture frame at a thrift store. It was UGLY but I loved the shape and knew it would look wonderful after a quick makeover.

Here she is before...

For this quick little makeover I just removed the backing and took everything apart.

The frame got a few coats of white spray paint

The cardboard insert was covered in fabric

For letters I used some chipboard babies from my scrapbook supplies {you can find these at any craft store in tons of colors}.

To make sure the letters stayed put I used a little hot glue to attach them.

Under an hour project! Love that!

I had to go outdoors to get a clear picture.

I'm planning on using this in a gallery wall in our master bedroom. Haven't even painted our room yet, but I'm already working on the gallery wall {yeah I'm like that sometimes}.

Happy Thursday!
