upcycle old picture frames

we have tons of old unused picture frames lying around. so i thought i would be crafty this week and try to use them. we had 3 of the black frames below but really black doesn't go with anything in our house. we are more brown people. everything i used in the crafts below we already had lying around. yay for free crafts!


i spray painted the black frame white, framed a piece of cloth, and hot glued this wooden "S" that has been sitting on a shelf as decor. our hallway is pretty bland so this was a fun thing to hang up. (p.s. sorry for the bad lighting in the photos...we have a basic point and shoot and that plus indoor lighting always equals less than great pictures).



for the second frame i spray painted the black frame again and then used chalkboard paint for the glass. it turned out to be a fun little diy chalkboard for our kitchen which will be fun to change each holiday or event we are having!



the third frame is still to come. i have something in the works to hang in emma taylor's room!
