Upcycled Picture Frame

I found another ugly picture that was surrounded by a beautiful frame.  I dismantled it, even taking a hammer to the linen insert.  What was left was a beautiful thin GOLD frame.  

Next I spray painted it black.  

Over that, I dry brushed white chalk paint, just hitting the top of the details.  

Finally I stapled chicken wire to the other side and added a black ribbon to hang it. 

A beautiful place to hang pictures of my favorite bulldog!  Actually, this piece sold at my last show.  You can bet I'm on the hunt for other ugly pictures in beautiful frames!  I may have more at my next show...
