Monogram Frame

Another project off the list! It all started when I purchased this letter "B" for my last name "Biggs" at Hobby Lobby for $5.I wasn't sure what I would do with it until I found this great picture frame at a garage sale for $2- I actually ended up paying $1.67 for it, because the guy didn't have change for a $20 and $1.67 is all I could scrape up at the bottom of my purse.
All it took was a few coats of Rustoleum's Semi Gloss Black and a little sanding to distress the edges and I have a great piece of artwork in my Master Bedroom for less than $10.
I love to read your comments, so let me know what you think. Love, Kelly

    Copying is the greatest form of flattery, right?
    I have a golden D floating around here somewhere that I've never been able to find the right spot for. This might be the answer . . .

    What a great idea! I love that they are hanging separate from each other!

    Sweet- so that is the secret huh? Carry 20's to garage sales and only a bit of change? :)

    I have a large D and it just never looked right hanging by itself. Thanks for the fab idea. Love your blog. I am a new follower and already have a pad with ideas I jotted down from your blog.

    Keep up the good work.
