Quick Valentine's Day project

I can't believe I only posted once this week! I am back to my old job working part time and I have to say it is an adjustment... but a good one. So here's two posts in one day!
I found this frame at the dollar store. Isn't it so cute and a cottagey? And for a dollar? That's almost free! I thought it could use a little for Valentine's Day. 
I traced and cut out some vintage inspired V-Day paper to fit over the border..
put it in the frame and printed a little message on the computer. It was so easy and these are so cheap, they could almost be Valentine's themselves.. or maybe painted black....hmmm  :)


Also, I have actually been doing some painting and have some special things coming out of the studio (i.e. kitchen table) for my Etsy store very soon!

  1. So very creative! I like it. I'm liking the color black. Although I think it looks good white too.

  10. yikes...my dollar store and your dollar store are definitely not the same thing. Wish I could find a frame like that in my dollar store! Now I'm wondering how many times I can say "dollar store" in the same comment. xoxo
