Thrifted Fabric Frame

Today I am comin’ to ya with a super fast and easy DIY Thrifted Fabric Frame that you can change with the season’s! While it currently has a little “Valentiny” (new word I made up) flair to it, it can certainly be used for any season by changing the attachment! I say “Valentiny” because if you follow me on Facebook, you have seen my live videos where I talk about my color scheme for Valentine’s this year being coral instead of red and pink! Plus…a bird reminds me of a “love bird”….

What I used for this Thrifted Fabric Frame:

Scrap fabric piece

Thrifted frame (not painted or anything- as is in this example)

$.50 wooden bird from Walmart

Craft paint/brushes to paint bird (ANY paint is fine!)

ALL I did for this project was steam my fabric to make sure it didn’t have any creases in it before putting it in my frame.

After that, I slid it into my frame as smoothly as possible, trying not to wrinkle it!

THEN…after my cute little birdie had dried, I put a piece of tape on the back and stuck it to the outside of the glass! BOOM! Easy!

How stinkin’ CUTE is this Thrifted Fabric Frame now?? Seriously. With the gray and gold, you can literally do soooo many different little cut outs! Just take it off and put a new one on. The tape works great on this glass because the cut out is so light! Makes it extra easy!

Here is a closer look just because it is so cute!

    Nah, that’s more like the grey & white of winter with a ‘Springy” bird. Sorry, it’s been grey & white here all day. It’s snowing in VA. “Valentiny” would have red & white fabric. That’s a cute idea. It would be great for kids to paint a different bird to celebrate different seasons, birthdays or holidays.

      It has been snowing here too! We have about a foot of snow. All of my Valentine’s decor is done in this exact color coral and white- instead of red and white 🙂

        It finally stopped at 2 1/2″ of snow. I am so looking forward to the 60 degree temps. this weekend. And no snow.

    Great idea! You could actually change the wooden element depending on the season. With maybe Velcro? I am for sure trying this and I know just where I am putting it. Iactually have about a dozen old frames I found in the attic of the old farm house we lived in at first. My hubby wanted to throw them out. I said I would use them someday. Now 47 years later it is going to happen. I’ll send a pic.
