  1. 1

    This is a video tutorial showing and describing how I painted my picture frames.

  2. 2

    Pictured is the final picture frames. The two frames to the left were previously gold picture frames, but brushing on some black acrylic paint changed the look of them. The graduation frame to the right has 3 coatd of acrylic paint with a texture caused by the thickness of the paint.

    This is what the graduation picture frame originally looked like. I essentially covered up the 2006 and painted the frame royal blue and painted the graduation cap silver to represent my school colors.
