silverware wall decor...

silverware picture...

{i cannot remember where i seen it first, so if you know... PLEASE tell me so i can give the proper credit to them!}

ANYWAYS, redoing kitchen, or at least i think i am, by bits and pieces, oh what a mess. i need some new wall decor... cheap wall decor is even better. i seen this picture around and knew it would be cheap, easy, and beautiful to redo.

so i started out with:

of course you remember my thriftin' goodies.

on THIS project i used:

1. picture frame $1 at salvation army

2. 1 knife, 1 fork, 1 spoon .75 at salvation army

3. a piece of lace from a curtain .25 at salvation army

4. spray paint {had on hand}

5. glue gun & sticks {had on hand}

TOTAL = $2.00

so to start i took the frame apart, kept the cardboard and i'll save the glass for another project then i spray painted it with:

{i'm a big fan of black, can you tell?}

then it looked like this:

then i took the lace and wrapped it around the cardboard and hot glued it down. then i put the cardboard back in the frame

AND it looked like THIS:

{i looove this lace, don't be surprised if you see it in another post, cause i got LOTS left!}

then i glued the knife, fork, and spoon to the front,

THAT looked like:

{yep you guessed, i already love it!}

then i had a dilemma... i couldn't decide how to hang it up, with ribbon or lace. so after much deliberation between my co-worker and i {yes, at work again, but only half of it, and we have been REALLY slow} we decided on lace. so then i glue it to the back of the frame like this:

and hung it up. after that it looked like this:

for some reason i didn't like the way the lace hung so i played with it a little.

much better!!!

i took it home at lunch and hung it on my half way painted kitchen walls.

{pretend it's all painted and you see no red, k?}

so what is the verdict??

was it worth $2??

what's your favorite piece of wall decor in your kitchen??

 

hooRah it's almost friday!!!

i'll be linking to these parties here.
