Here's My Take On Frame, Turned Shabby Chic Style!

My daughter and I love thrift shopping! She found this unpainted frame. Wow a blank slate! So happy.
I have a bigger upcoming project, building my shabby chic outdoor shed, and this piece will feature in it.
I chose to use chalk paint. It gives an older shabby look with less work. Often there is no sanding, you just paint right over finish!
I found the wall accent removable stickers, marked down at Joann's. You can can also use paper napkins, fabric and wall paper to create along with mod podge to seal cut outs.
Got this letter cut out for a more personal look.
I lightly painted my cut out with moss/green craft paint, then applied moss with craft glue.
To give my frame a more vintage look, lace fabric was applied to the back using tacks I had on hand.
The letter cut out was made to look like it was suspended on its own by using hook at the top, and using clear string, to give it a move 3-D look.
Here is the finish product hanging on our wall in our home, to show you the over all look, while its new home is under construction {Shabby Chic Shed}.
