Metal Frames by Prima
(Here is the original post by Prima)Prima's new metal frames are funky and creative. They can be altered to your hearts delight with a little paint and Prima style ingenuity. I customize mine for my son using the Stationer's Desk collection. This is a photo I took of him two years ago and maybe my favorite of him. I am trying to capture as many moments of him as I can before he leaves for college soon.
Here is the frame before I altered it.
The frame is quite large maybe standing about 12 inches high and 6 inches wide. It can fit a 6x4 photo.
I added some metal paint Verdigris and gesso to the edges, some stamping as well for a little graffiti feel. In the photo, my son is standing in front of a graffiti wall so I tried to emulate the gritty feel here.
OK - so the flowers aren't so gritty. But I love them just the same. A mamma's touch to soften her son.
I used many elements from Prima's new Stationer's Desk Collection and some very very cool embellishments from Invgild Blome's Junkyard findings that have been newly released.
This cool light bulbs by Invild Bolme are part of her newest collection. I glued two of the together and hung them with Prima's new wire thread. Sadly, my photos do not show the dimensional aspect of this but I just love it.
