A little shabby chic frame set

Hi everyone, it's Teresa here today and I want to share a shabby chic project I did for my crafty room.  I am doing a little remodeling with lots of shabby chic pinks and roses so I thought I would make this week's projects something to go up on the wall for inspiration as I craft and a little something to keep the little trinkets I pick up from traveling.....

So as everything starts with some kind of inspiration...I had this stamp that I got at Donna Downey's studio in North Carolina this past year and it was the perfect size to fit inside the wooden frame that I picked up and had in my stash. So with all the beautiful ribbons and flowers from Really Reasonable Ribbons it was easy to put this together quickly.  I used the WOC Cottage Roses and Baby Pink Seam Binding and just a little bit of Burlap String to really give it that old fashioned shabby chic look I wanted.

To make the hanging frame- I painted all the wooden pieces with white paint from Folk Art and then glued it on layered pieces of paper and let that dry. I stamped my image on white paper with grey ink to match the papers and then glued it on the front and added some pearls.  The ribbons and flowers I think really made it, and I attached another piece of white seam binding on the back so that I can hang it up.

Since I had my paints out I thought I would make up this box and to make it go quicker I added a few pieces of paper from Teresa Collins that matched with the flowers.  This was really quick and now I have a place to put some of the trinkets I have laying around my craft room.

That's it for today from me and I hope you like it and it inspires you to make something fun for yourself or someone special in your life.  Have a great day!
