Upcycled Antique Frame Mood Board
This beautiful old frame found me.
I love how things appear for you when they are meant to be yours!
The first thing I thought about upcycling it into was a mood board for my studio's little quotes and art inspirations.
I decided not to repaint it and leave in all its rustic glory, as it suits the plywood and green painted wall colour of my studio where it will hang.
Supplies
An old frame
Heavy Cardboard from a box
4 Cork tiles
PVA wood glue
Picture framing mechanisms and wire
Quotes and pictures from magazines
Cut the cardboard to fit the back side of the frame.
Cut the tiles to fit the cardboard.
Glue the cork tiles onto the cardboard and leave to dry.
Place the cork board into the frame and attach it. I used the existing clips on the frame, but you can just tape in place.
I taped the back as well.
Then attach the picture hanging mechanisms and wire.
Then for the fun bit - adding arty images and quotes using pearl-head sewing pins.
Hang on the wall.
