Your altered frame is fabulous . Just love all the textured stenciling and the whole vintage distressed look you have created . Gorgeous colour tones too. Great step by step and like the heat gun tip for removing the mirror. One to remember for sure and love that it creates a space to add your own imagery panels- yours are both wonderful. <br />Have a great weekend Everyone .
