When I found the screen, It looked like this.
It was covered with macrame and had a broken bar, but I could tell the frame was really old and had potential.
I thought the screen would be lovely with vintage floral fabric panels.
Or with no panels and using it as a drying rack or to hang photos or art work.
Ultimately, I decided on french grain sack panels. I painted them using my stencil method you can see here.
I addd a graphic from the Graphics Fairy blog. I used a transfer method I learned from Shellagh at Ticking and Toile.
And here it is again at the mall.
Please visit all the parties I'll be joining. They are listed on my sidebar.

It really looks wonderful! You have the ability to see what a piece can become. (while I am clueless.)
