I really like finding old shadowboxes when I'm out thrifting because they are so much fun to repurpose.
I've posted a couple of shadowbox projects in past posts.
This old seed box......
became a display for vintage sewing notions.
And this little shadowbox......
was turned into a display shelf for vintage shaving brushes.
A couple of weeks ago I found this little shadowbox frame.
Not loving the seashells and flowers but I had a plan.
A little paint, a little distressing, some old watch parts and a graphic from The Graphics Fairy.
A new look for the old shadowbox frame.
I'm linking to some great parties:
White Wednesday with Kathleen @ Faded Charm
and
Wow Us Wednesday with Kim @ Savvy Southern Style
Happy Wednesday!

I think all three look great-they're fun:@)
ReplyDeleteI won't pass those up anymore at goodwill.
ReplyDeleteWell, that just looks great now, Jane! Love the paint color and the old watch and gears. It looks like a great size to add to a shelf or tabletop, too.
ReplyDeleteAwesome, Jane!
ReplyDeleteI really like the antique sewing shadowbox. It would look so cute in a sewing room.

ReplyDeleteLove this makeover. What a perfect display for old watch pieces. I'm looking for shadowboxes now!
ReplyDeleteYour shadowboxes are, actually, pieces of art. I just bought a couple deep frames at a garage sale and you are inspiring me to get busy and do something with them.
