Dear Prudence: A weekend thrifty art re-do.

Recently I was going through some old boxes of things I used to have around the house a long time ago. I found these little shadow boxes I bought from Hobby Lobby maybe six or seven years ago. My first thought was to toss them, as I don't like them anymore. But then I thought, why not use the frames and turn them into something else?

First, I found a boring, old print at the thrift store:

Then I removed the backs of the shadow boxes:

I used the backs to trace the exact shape out of the print (these frames were not perfect shapes and not the same size at all):

Then, using the same steps I used here, I adhered tiny vinyl letters and painted over the whole thing:

After pulling off the letters, I ended up with these:


These are lyrics from the Beatles song Dear Prudence. I'm so glad I didn't throw these away. Did you make anything this weekend? I want to see!
