My daughter inherited these from her Aunt Dawn..................
These were huge in the 70's - and I remember these sitting on her dresser !
2 perfume decanters
and 2 picture frames
My daughter gave me one set - and after telling me she was going to make one of the frames a tray -
I decided to copy her idea by removing the " stand " part on the back of the frame and covering the insert
( the piece behind the glass ) with some pale aqua tissue paper I had - just wrapping it like a gift basically
Actually much messier than that - but the same concept lol
And of course painting ( dry brushing really ) the entire piece with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint ™ - in pure white
Then I moved on to the decanter - with the same paint - and added a monogram by using a stencil and scraping the paint off so that the monogram is in glass ( yes, you can definitely paint glass with chalk paint ! )
It's perfect for one of the guest rooms - a place to drop jewelry etc..............
It's about as shabby chic as you can get don't you think?
Ok time to stop playing - I have an armoire to paint !!!
Have a wonderful Thursday
