My dear SA surprised me with the LV Ocean Liner Label Postcards delivered to my hotel suite the night before my wedding. I have been wanting to do something special and not just have them hidden away. Part one of the project has been completed! Last month while visiting my SA I asked if I could have a shopping bag that was the biggest size they had in the store. :smile: Next, I headed to Michael's and found the perfect half price frame that reminded me of an aged wooden trunk. Finally, I raided my leftover wedding supply box for spray adhesive and a glue stick. So while DH watched college football (and I half watched/mostly listened), my ocean liner labels framed up beautifully on the LV shopping bag background. DH was completey shocked at how great it turned out. He was very skeptical when I told him we are going to hang LV framed postcards in the dining room! Haha. I could only fit half the postcards in this frame so I will have to make a part two...The pics of my project are to follow. :smile:

Cut up one side of the bag and ironed to get the creases/any wrinkles smooth. Cut the bag to fit using the glass from the frame as a pattern.

Finally, figured out how I liked them placed the best and used a glue stick to tack the labels down. :heart:
