I bought this frame at a garage sale. It had a mirror in the middle at one point but had broken and they removed it. When I saw it I immediately thought it would look cute with some chicken wire in the middle. Lately that seems to be one of my favorite materials to replace anything with. I just love the look of it and the possibilities of chicken wire are endless. Anyhow I painted it up with some homemade chalk paint. I then sanded it down to distress the corners and make it look older. It just goes to show you that nothing needs to be thrown away...you can always find a way to re-new and re-use anything.
I hope you all are enjoying your summer months and have a great day!!
Here is the before picture. As you can see the mirror is no longer inside of the frame. I took off the back piece and inserted chicken wire.
