Burlap Earring Stand

Got another old frame at a garage sale, and finally decided what to do with it.  We put our heads together and using some of our favorite materials created something that I am pretty proud of.  We chose to make a earring stand that would hang on the wall.

Supplies Needed:
Old Frame
Burlap
Paint
Letter Stencil
Hot Glue

Step 1: Paint the frame your desired color.

Step 2: Use the letter stencil to paint on your desired letter(s) or word(s).

Step 3: Stretch the burlap so it fits into the back of the frame nice and tight.

Step 4: Add any extra decorations to the frame if you desire.

Final Product; Wall art with a purpose.

Check out the close-up photo of the frame in 'The Shop.' We can custom make this for you, or hopefully it inspired you to create something of your own.

Decorating. Crafting. Living.

Decorating an entire home can become, and is a daunting task.  It would be so much easier if you had endless funds and time to think up projects and complete them.  Lets be honest through, our time gets filled up much to quickly, and our wallets empty much to fast.  We might think of a great idea, but by the time we get an afternoon to start it, we've forgotten what it was we were intending to do.  I have been there.

 I have struggled with the fact that I can't fix all that I see 'wrong' with the rooms in my home in one weekend.  For me decorating is an evolving process, one that actually I enjoy not rushing.  It is amazing how when you are forced to take your time, you become inspired by many different things, things you might have missed if you had sped through the process.

My approach on design is one of creativity, using materials in a cost effective way and having fun.  I have learned that sometimes the end result doesn't happen quickly.  This blog will embrace that, and hopefully give you some inspirations to begin the road to design in your own life.
