REPURPOSED PICTURE FRAME

Remember this post when I framed iconic designers for my dresser top?  Well, my perfume bottles are kinda just there. Not bad, but not great. I was in Unique Thrift Store and saw this gold picture frame and instantly thought perfume/vanity tray. And the best part, it was only $1.49!




At first, I took the backboard off, but the glass seemed loose, so I put it back for support.
Then, I just flipped it over and cleaned the glass.
VOILA!
What a great way to repurpose the frame into a vanity tray?



Notice the intricate filigree detail.

REVAMP

I'm all about recycle/reuse/reduce, although my waste maintenance service puts my recyclables in the same place as the regular garbage. (I think I'm gonna report him) Anyway, being a Do-It-Yourselfer, I love to see what other DIYers do and I came across Erica from p.s.- I made this. She has so many clever ideas like this one.


I was in my favorite store, Target, this weekend and saw this similar lamp for $40. The online price is $54.


Erica, you done messed up now! You go girl!
