Redesigned Furniture !

There are certain things in life that might become old and worn out, may have scratch marks, the colour might be dull,  but their beauty still does not fade as every scratch mark, every patch on it has a story to tell, it takes us back to the gone by days, so many moments spent then become a memory now......sweet memories...

To cherish and treasure those sweet, priceless memories and to create many more Inshallah, I have tried to give a makeover, redesigned look to this wooden Study Unit using various techniques of decoupage, stencilling, painting, stamping, clay moulding etc. to give it a new look. It did take time and efforts but it was all worth it Mashallah..

Hope you all like it too...to see more detailed pics you may please scroll down and the video link is right in the end of the post...

This is the original old study unit...scroll down to see the makeover :)

Acrylic Frame turns into a Customized Changeable Photo Frame!

Hello Friends!
I hope you all are doing great! Today I am here on the blog with a new project of mine using the awesome Amor Mio Paper Pack. Itsy Bitsy has launched some new really amazingly beautiful paper packs with which you can create some awesome projects like albums, cards, tags, altered items and so on..the list is never-ending....just let your imagination go free and create :)

Here we go to create an altered customized photo frame where you can slide in and change the pictures, photographs, quotations, motivational sayings, etc. as many times to give it a new look again and again.

From Amor Mio paper pack I chose a floral sheet and cut it to the size of the acrylic frame 6"/4".



Here in the picture below you can see the paper is cut to the size of the acrylic frame.


I chose the beautiful window dies and cut two pieces with it using the same paper pad. I recommend using the Little Birdie's Dream Cut Die cutting and embossing machine for smooth cutting.


I cut the cross shaped grill design of the window with a scissor to make it an open window frame.

On the 6'/4' pre-cut paper, place the window die-cut on the left side and mark the inner side of it with a pencil
.

Remove the window diecut, and cut out the rectangle on the drawn lines.

You will have a rectangular cut like this .

Using the Pigment Ink, ink up all the edges with foam or dauber.

Using craft glue, adhere the paper on the acrylic frame.

Now adhere one window die-cut over the open part, align it well.

Take another window die-cut and on its back adhere some double-sided tape or glue foam dots.

Stick it over the previous diecut of the window. It will give a raised effect to the window.

Like this...




Do little stamping on the upper left side of the window. Adhere  the beautiful flower bunch on the right side
.



Your frame is ready now to keep on changing as many pics as u like just by sliding in from behind.





You can use quotations,motivational quotes etc. and keep changing with utmost ease giving it a new look every time :)













Hope you enjoyed this simple yet innovative creation that can add to the beauty of your home decor.
