Made from an antique picture frame, this unique chick-grid photo holder is a perfect example of how the elegance of the past can meet the needs of the modern home. Following the principle of "new from old", an old picture frame with character has been given a new lease of life and now serves not only a decorative but also a functional role.
The base colour of the picture frame is Bamboo Green from LP Chalk Paint, which gives the piece a fresh, natural feel. This subtle green colour is an ideal choice that will blend effortlessly into any interior, whether rustic, vintage or modern. The edges and trims of the frame are highlighted with dark brown, orange, white and gold shades. The dark brown adds depth and elegance, while the warm tones of orange create contrast. The white adds freshness and the gold adds a subtle shimmer that enhances the antique character of the piece.
The chick net, which is placed inside the frame, is not only practical but also decorative. This meticulously crafted detail is perfect for displaying photos, notes or small mementos. The texture of the mesh harmonises perfectly with the antique details of the frame, while adding a modern touch to the overall look.
As a final step in the transformation, I treated the frame with water-based silk gloss parquet. This varnish provides durability and wear resistance from everyday use, while giving the piece a subtle, elegant shine. The result is a unique piece that has both timeless and decorative value.
This chick-net photo holder is the perfect choice for any room in your home. It will look stunning on the wall of a living room, study or even a hallway, while also providing a stylish way to display your personal items. If you're looking for a piece that combines old-world charm with a modern twist, this photo holder is guaranteed to win you over. Get it and bring this unique, handcrafted beauty into your home!
