Antiques breathe life into me. Looking at anything antique just makes my soul happy. From place to place, it has felt & experienced many things - seasons of being well-loved, then abandoned, but then loved again...where ever it has gone, it's been that fly on the wall forever learning secrets & gaining wisdom. It has lived a full life and there seems to be no end in sight - if only we can be so lucky.
You will need the following materials:
Shadow Box - Set of 3 $4.99 (Full Price $9.99) - Michael's here.
Antique Keys (came with 6 keys) - $6.99 - Marshall's; similar here.
Scrapbook Paper - $0.69 - Michael's
Cardboard paper or cardstock
Tape, scissors, low temperature glue gun
Take the backing from the shadow box and outline your scrapbook paper to fit this.
Do the same with the cardboard paper.
Tape the scrapbook paper to the cardboard paper. Doing this will keep the backing of the shadowbox from being damaged by tape & glue.
Take your key & place the glue as shown:
Secure to the scrapbook paper, place into the frame, and you are done!
You can also do this with a regular frame. Just remove the glass & done! I got this one from the Dollar Tree :)
If you feel like some areas of your home are lacking that little
something, this project is perfect! I love this project because it is so customizable,
inexpensive, and not time-consuming at all. There are so many frames & keys to choose from, and you can place it in a variety of different ways.
