Garden Frame

I've been wanting a cool frame for displaying in our balcony.

I was looking for a vintage taste one that is hard to find.

So, I decided to make it!

 

 First, I screwed the ceder  timbers and painted light blue.

And overpainted ivory.

Then to peal the ivory randomly, scuffed the paint.


 Secondly, made the wire work to set the frame:)


 

 As I wanted to make it look like shabby one,

painted dark brown first and overpainted ivory mixed with the lime.

Don't you think the lime works well?

And then,  screwed the acrylic glass in reverse.




This flame is to display outside, so I didn't choose a real glass but  an acrylic one.




Finished!!!




It only takes about 2 hours!!!
