Day 23: Framed Vintage Ornaments

DAY 23 is brought to you by, the lovely Denise of Spittin ToadWhen Denise shared this on her blog the other day, I instantly fell in love. I love vintage glass ornaments… and I tend to buy these anytime I find them at a flea market/thrift store (I have a bit of a Christmas addiction… hee). This is just the sweetest way to really display your favorite pieces!

How to:

– Find an old frame. Take out the backing/glass/etc.

– Paint it if you’d like. Maybe add some glitter? Polka dots? A bow?

– Pick out some favorite ribbon, string, strands of beads, etc to hang your vintage ornaments.

– To hang the ribbon/etc. on the back of the frame, you can staple them onto the back. OR, if you don’t want to staple all over the back of your lovely frame, maybe add a string of wire to the back and tie your ornaments from there.

– Hang on the wall, enjoy!

So lovely.

P.S. Denise is my cousin! Love her.
