I thought I would share a great little project that would make a fabulous keepsake for your home or a gift for someone special.

I don’t know about you, but I love to get frames as a gift. It’s something I rarely think to buy for myself, but at the same time something that I love to have. 

I started with a plain pine frame that I picked up from my local craft store, and painted it white.

Then I cut coordinating patterned paper to cover the front of my frame. I used the Handmade Holiday collection from Simple Stories.

Look at all of the beautiful May Arts Ribbon! Here is what I used:

• 8″- 1.5″ Sheer Ruffled Edge Ribbon
• 6″- Gold Leaf Ribbon
• 12″-3/8″ Multi Size Ivory Pearls

Once the patterned paper was attached to the frame, I started to embellish. Adding the beautiful ribbon, the flower and buttons using a glue gun.

There you have it a pretty easy, but beautiful gift for someone this holiday season. Thanks for stopping by!
