Farmhouse Rooster
This is a plate frame, you know the kind that would hold a limited addition plate from the 90's. I purchased it for a dollar from the thrift store and created this live on my Facebook page.....if you missed it you can check out the video below. Roosters will always be in style and will fit into any decor.
Supply List
I painted the wood round in White Linen which has a sealer in it.
I created the distress look using the Vintage Texture Stamp and Stone Grey Ink
The rooster is from the Brocante Transfer.
I painted the frame in Little Black Dress and sealed it in Clear Wax
I hope this has inspired you to create beautiful things today!
