After: Used a little soap/water.. and a Q-tip to clean up this wooden frame and painted it distressed black. Decopauged the animal print and added a metal cross from HLs 1/2 off sale! Couldnt be happier!

This cross frame was the finishing touch to my Thrift store furnished fireplace! Love it!

Before: Thrift store find in the 49 cent bin. Thought that was a steal, for a frame like that!
