Supplies

An old frame

Spray paint

Wadding

Fabric

Cardboard

Picture hanging mechanism

PVA glue

Hot glue

Step 1:

I didn't want the mirror for this project, so I removed the back of the frame and took the mirror out.

Tracing the shape onto cardboard for a new backing.

And spray painting the frame.

Step 2:

I cut a piece of wadding and soft velvet fabric to fit the shape to fit the shape of the cardboard.

Then used hot glue on the back to attach the fabric over the wadding.

popped into the frame and used PVA glue to attach.

This was left overnight to dry, and a picture hanger mechanism was screwed into the back of the frame at the top.

Step 3:

Finally, the jewellery was attached.

You can poke the point bar of the brooch into the fabric wadding, or you can pin the brooches on using pearl head sewing pins.

A picture hanging hook put on wall and hung.
