Shaped MDF frame Merry Christmas Project

Hi everyone, I'm Crystal! I'm a mom to three cuties, wife to an amazing husband, and blogger at

I'm so happy to be here today to share with you an easy Christmas project. I know, I know we're still away from Chistmas, but with how busy the holiday season gets it's great to have projects planned ahead. :)



Supplies: Eleanor Frame Martha Stewart Acrylic Paint (Jet Stream) Pine Cones Felt rick rack Vinyl



To make my new Christmas frame I began by applying three coats of paint. Once the final coat was dry I used my Silhouette to cut out Merry Christmas using vinyl. For the backing I glued on a piece of glittered cardstock. I glued the rick rack onto each pine cone then tied them together. I hot glued the knot directly onto the cardstock, leaving the pine cones to hang loose.



I

found the adhesive pearl embellishment in the scrapbooking aisle at Hobby Lobby and added pieces of it to both sides of the frame.



And that's it! It's a fairly simple Christmas frame but I love the way it came together. The best part is if I ever get tired of it I can remove the vinyl and change the center to create a new look.


Thank you for having me today. I hope you'll stop by sometime, I love making new friends! To see more of my holiday projects you can subscribe or follow me on:
