While window shopping trying to come up with a project for today’s Good Things Utah segment, I came across this amazing frame at Downeast Home in Sandy (I picked up another, similar frame, too – oh, the possibilities) and figured I’d better snag it up. Having already picked up a little something for the segment, I had intended to save it for later.
However, the more I thought about it, the more I realized the chippy frame would look amazing with the clean, bright colors of Lime Twist – Fly a Kite.
With the traditional silhouette making a comeback, I thought using Lime Twist – Fly a Kite would be the perfect way to add a modern, colorful twist on an old classic!
As usual, I have included instructions. Click here to download: Download 2011_05_10_MME_Silhouette Art
I will add the video here when it is available.
I am loving the versatility of our Lime Twist collection – too much fun!
Are you trying to find a chippy white frame? Check thrift stores, dollar stores, with relatives and your favorite craft store (preferably one that carries MME – wink). Notice that gold showing through my frame? All you have to do is paint white over a gold frame and you sand slightly.

That's a nice art. It would work well on our living room wall.
