*That should say DIY..NOT "sit", but it wont let me esit the title. *sigh* * So I really wanted cute frames to put certain signs in..and I did NOT want to spend more than $2 each, since A) I had to buy a few and B) they have to travel to NY, then won't be used again. LOL SO I went to the 99cent...

So I really wanted cute frames to put certain signs in..and I did NOT want to spend more than $2 each, since A) I had to buy a few and B) they have to travel to NY, then won't be used again. LOL

SO I went to the 99cent Only store here in San Diego..they had these plastic-y embossed frame things with a pre-printed photo..and they weren't in my color scheme.
But the design could totally work...so I bought them, brought them home and today used a can of chrome silver spray paint I had at the house on them, and VOILA! Now I will just print the signs needed and put them in the blank center area! Smiley laugh


And, mind you I'm very proud of myself for doing this all on 4hrs sleep. Haha

    Just the signs (still in dollar store frames) and favors...petal cones but I will make those the day before (easier to ship befire making)...otherwise just shipping little things like extra crystals for decor, the escort card holders, petals, etc. Stuff I dont want to have to lug around in an extra suitcase.

    Looks GREAT!!!!

    Did you just paint the entire thing and then put your 'sign' part of it glued on top or did you put your sign "in" the frame?

    Haha..wellllll, yes I took the glass off, spray painted the whole thing, then the plan was to use double-sided tape, stick my paper on and then put the glass back on top...but I broke one of the pieces of glass. So I just skipped the other piece of glass as well. It will work well enough for what it is needed for without the glass, so doesn't bother me Smiley smile
