Recently I found this yellow frame at a garage sale for $2. It was missing the glass or mirrors on the sides and one of the dividers wasn't connected, but it was well worth the $2!

I removed the hooks and spray painted it an Oregano color. I absolutely love Rust-oleum's 2x paints. The coverage is so good!

After I painted it, I reattached the divider that had come unattached.

I used one of my favorite graphics from The Graphics Fairy. I turned it in Picnik and copied it onto a piece of scrapbook paper.

I wrapped burlap around a piece of hardboard and hot glued the back. I used hot glue to attach this key to one of them.

And this "5" to another.

I bought the key and the "5" at Hobby Lobby.

I then put everything back in the frame, reattached the hooks and hung it up.

I'm really happy with it.

Thanks so much for your visit!

I made a very simple piece of wall art the other day. I started with a typewriter graphic from The Graphics Fairy. I collect old typewriters, and was so happy to find a graphic that looked almost exactly like this one.

I flipped the image in Picasa by clicking Ctrl/Shift/H. This gives you the mirror image for iron-on transfers.

I copied the image onto Transfer paper in my inkjet printer. I cut it out very close to the edges of the printing.

I ironed it on. By ironing onto the burlap, the image did not come out as dark as I would've hoped. I know I could've used a different fabric to get a darker picture, but I think the burlap is neat.
