Gift for Carly

I love going to thrift stores and yard sales to buy frames.  Let me rephrase that...I love going to thrift stores and yard sales for anything I can upcycle. 

I bought this pretty frame at the thrift store for $2.00.  Popped out the old needlepoint panel; replaced it with an old piece of chalkboard that I found while cleaning out an old classroom; hot glued a layered paper flower in the corner and

Viola!  A cute gift for Carly...

Isn't Carly an amazing artist?  The drawing is so lifelike!  LOL
