DIY Frames.

My husband and I made these frames quite some time ago, but I just recently found what I wanted behind them.  They are super easy to make.  I unfortunately don't have many pics, but basically...

I purchased pre-made frames at Hobby Lobby.

Drove nails into the sides on the backside of the frame.

Ran wire from side to side.

Cut and then hot glued fabric (or rug, whatever you want to call it) onto the back.



 We are going to hang postcards from every trip we take.  Right now we only have Colorado... I bet you can't tell who picked out what postcards. ;)

A Place to Lay My Head.

I love my new pillows!  The blue pillows were made from napkins I found, and the gold one I bought at World Market.


Shutterboard.

I searched forever for cheap shutters and did not have success.  One day, while crawling under the creepy space under our house (the one I refuse to go in) my husband found three perfect wood shutters.  Makes me wonder what else is under there....  Anyways, I decided to turn them into a headboard in our guest room.  Here are the results:



I painted the shutters grey and distressed them.  My husband and I bracketed them together and hung the shutters with picture wire.
