Ornate Medallion Frames by Theresa mARTin

Whimsy

 

Gale’s new Ornate Medallion Frames are graceful, lacy and lovely with their gentle curves. These two pieces have different moods. One is reminiscent of a Fabergé egg with it’s soft grey tones combined with white cabochons. The other is slightly more bold with gold and black tones, yet both feel delicate and dainty because of the base frame made by paperwhimsy.

    Just amazing, Theresa. They are so beautiful. I am wondering – how you were able to wrap the chain of rhinestones around the frames? Another project I have to try, lol.

  6. Hi Maggie,

    Thanks. I glued a rhinestone chain around the oval. It’s very easy to do. You could glue single rhinestones around the frame too for the same effect.
