Sometimes it takes awhile for a unique little item to make it home with me from the charity shop.
I spied this cross stitched beauty on each of my thrifty visits for nearly 3 months but as I couldn’t think of a use or a place for it I left it for another vintage lover to discover.
Inspiration finally struck during my last thrifting trip and I snapped this big ol’ frame up! (I honestly can’t believe that no one had purchased it – I guess it was destined to be mine)
Any idea what I did with it? Take a peek at my My Quirky Upcycled Sunglasses Storage Solution & find out:
I glued a length of sturdy lace from one side to the other across the top of the picture
and then…
loaded it up with my collection of sunnies
and hung it up in the “accessory corner” of my bedroom – it fits perfectly above my instant shoe storage!
