Framework

Hey!

I recently found an old wooden frame, when we cleared up the attic. One of the upsides of living on a big old farm is, that you always discover new (OLD) things.

Anyway, the frame looked old (in the bad way) and I didn't like the color. I wanted it to keep an old look, though, so I found a technique, which I thought was just right for my frame!

The result:

 


  

And here is how I did it:



1. Find a cool old wooden frame
2. Sand the frame carefully and get as much old paint off as possible
3. Paint/spray the frame with your base color
4. Paint/spray the frame with your top color
5. Sand the frame at the places where you want the base color to come through.

You should try it!
