Get the Look Thursday - {Antique Farmhouse Metal Wall Frame}

I know, I know,
I keep doing knock-off projects from Antique Farmhouse,

but I just keep finding so many I like.

I do have some knock-offs from other

companies that I will be 

showing in the future though, I promise.

I love the look of this metal wall frame

Antique Farmhouse sold for $22 (sold out).

 I kept this image in my idea file, 

but honestly couldn't figure out

how I was going to come up with

something similar, since I've

never seen any metal pieces

like they used for their product. 

Then, one day I was going through

all of my silver plated pieces in my

collection and realized that some of 

my bowls and platters have such

pretty tarnish on them, and

 pretty edges, one of them might work well.

My version is somewhat different,

but it's one that I think everyone

could copy, since silver plated items

are plentiful at thrift & antique stores 

and they can usually be found very inexpensively.

I used adhesive scrapbook corners

to secure the photo to the shallow bowl

I chose for my version.

 I decided to try another variation on

an old ironstone saucer and I like

it just as well.

I think both of these are lovely and unusual ways

to display favorite antique photos and

a great way to use odds and ends plates too.

You could create a larger display using multiple

photos on a larger silver platter also.

If you don't have a favorite old photo,

you can copy and print the beautiful woman

I used on my plate, HERE.  

I have several other antique photos available to print also 

at the bottom of the page HERE (click on the one

you like to be taken to the larger image).

Blessings,

Angie
