I got the living room painted and Matt has built an entire subfloor on top of it so we can put pergo in the living room because the floor was so uneven it would have not worked (I dont know what i would do w/o him!!) ...I have gone through 10 gallons of paint already!! Lots more to be done.... I just cant wait for it to be done and when i get to unpack all my stuff and find where to put it...I thought this is a cool idea on how to use your old scarves..I have so many that I love but yet never wear...<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Got this one off of designsponge.com<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);

I got two Open Back Frames from Hobby Lobby for $30 (they go on sale all the time) and brought them home and sprayed painted them high gloss white.

Then I took a piece of mat board that I had cut to the size of the frame and applied a thin layer of Mod Podge over the whole thing.
