Bow Garland DIY

Trash to Treasure - Farmers’ Market

 This project was multi steps to complete! The frame and the picture both needed some work! I’ve been trying the watercolor technique more lately - I don’t feel comfortable with it.  I do feel like this one turned out pretty gorgeous.  The corn even looks 3D!  My husband was convinced that I must have put the pumpkin on first, but it was last, because the wheat and corn needed something in the middle! This picture and frame I got at our local thrift store.  It was $3 and had a sister frame as well.  It seems to be a homemade frame and hand painted, but I’m not so certain.  Unfortunately, it has seen better days, so it’s a great candidate for this makeover!   Here’s the  DIY Video of this Redo! I think this one turned out so cute.  Stay tuned for the sister frame from this thrift store find! By the way, I have added my finished goods that are for sale up to this page, let me know if you are interested in something you’ve seen me make. Finished Goods Shop

I had to get all 3 of them to try, of course.  I will say, that the floral one has a lot more stitching.  Doable for a Beginner, but I recommend the
