IKEA hack - TOLSBY frame customized with nail polish

When it comes to inexpensive IKEA hacks, the TOLSBY frame is one of my favorites. This little plastic 4x6 frame is useful for photos, of course, but we also love to use it during parties for displaying menus or signage. Sometimes the default white is perfectly subtle for my use, but sometimes I'd rather have colors that really pop. I decided to apply a geometric mosaic pattern to a TOLSBY frame, and I chose nail polish as my paint. Nail polish is perfect for this because not only does it come...

Palm Print Shadow Box Art

In the past I’ve had mixed feelings about shadow boxes, they’re used to display memorabilia, sports jerseys or shell collections, that sort of thing. I’ve come around on this style of frame for wall displays now that I see them in a new light. If the subject matter of the shadow box is simple, I’m in. I wanted to change up the mantel scene with a creative new art project. I decided on palm leaf shadow box art after spying this black and linen version at Pottery Barn. I gathered some faux palm le...
