It is pretty rude of me to refer to this as "drab" considering my dear sister had made this for me. However, she should be flattered because I love it and have had it in my room for several years! I have changed my bedroom colors and the frame was in need of a paint job, so I decided to just re-do the whole thing.
My finished project! I took it apart in the back and using a stencil I painted the Fleur De Lis onto plain white fabric. Then I spray painted my frame, I believe the paint is called "Ocean Breeze".
It just looks so fresh and happy now! As you can tell, I can't bare to place any memos on my memo board. It just looks too pretty as is!
This was a small part of my bedroom makeover, which I will be sharing soon. I went from creams, sages and blue to aqua, turquoise and white with some touches of gray and burnt orange. It is so nice to finally do a little bit in my bedroom, it is always the last spot to get some love :)
