Farmhouse Decor for Cheap
Do you love the Farmhouse look but not the price? I found a picture frame at a garage sale, and I’m sharing how I turned into farmhouse decor for cheap.
I found this picture frame at a garage sale for $2

When I pulled the frame apart I found that the center piece was a separate insert.
I wiped and cleaned everything first. Then I painted the picture frame with White Folk Art Home Decor Chalk Paint.
Once that was dry I added E6000 to the back of the frame.
I then placed the glass piece back into the frame onto the adhesive.
I took a small magnet, and painted it white.
I added hot glue to the back of the magnet.
I pressed the magnet onto the cross section of the frame.
I purchased these metal word sets at Dollar Tree. They were 3 per set, and I’ll continue to look for more of the seasons to add to the collection.
I placed the metal word onto the picture frame.
I can use this farmhouse window vertical or horizontal.
It sits by my front door welcoming people. I love how I’ll be able to change up the words per month, or season.
You can see my side table that it sits on here – Side Table Makeover

Great idea! I have a frame almost identical and a metal word – need this for my home office! Right now the metal word is stuck on my file cabinet, not nearly as nice as your idea.
Thank you so much, and I’m thrilled you like the idea 🙂
oh, such great ideas and simple! i need to get back to creating some things!

I love this sign and the cute table it is on.
Thank you so much Rebecca, I appreciate it.
What a great idea! It is so much easier just to swap the word rather than the whole frame every time you want a change.
Thank you so much Catherine, and I love decor you can leave up all year and just tweak something little for every season.
Great find and I love what you did with it, Chas. Thank you for sharing at Party In Your PJ’s!

Chas, this is such a brilliant idea (to add am magnet!). I love that idea, that way you can change out the words or sayings for the different Holidays or seasons. Brilliant, my friend!

Thank you so much Beth, and thanks for the invite. I appreciate the offer to link up.
I love this! I’m curious as to why you chose chalk paint? Do you plan on writing your own words on the frame? I have a green frame similar to this I’ve been saving for a project….
Lori
Thank you Lori. I used chalk paint because that is what I had on hand and I knew it would have great coverage. I haven’t thought about writing my own words, but that is a great idea. I’m so excited you want to give this project a try.
