Antique Tilt Frame Chalkboards

Every once in a while I find something
that just makes me say yay in the middle of the store!

Even the woman next to me at the thrift store
said "Wow! Great find!" and it sure was...

I brought all 6 of these fabulous antique swing easel
frames home and dry brushed them in different colors.

The detail on the frames is beautiful and the dry brushing technique made it pop!

Each one got a chalkboard...

    Susan - Love your frames. I love those old ones on a stand like that. They look so pretty in all of those colors. I'm sure they will sell rapidly.
