Typically, these cost a lot to make. But why not do-it-yourself?

One day I went around and took pictures for my friend Victoria. I got them printed and taped them to a piece of wood. It didn’t take long and it ended up looking great! I wrapped it with some burlap to make it look vintage, and she adored it:)

This is a great gift for someone who has everything. You could also do words in your own home like “Love” or “Hope”

Rustic Sheet Music

Here is how you make your sheet music look antique.
All you need is a pan, sheet music and tea or coffee. We used tea just because it was the only thing available.

Crumple up the paper a little bit and soak it in the tea. The longer you soak it, the browner it gets. We only did it for an hour but I recommend you soak it longer than that.

I know it isn’t that brown but with longer soaking it will be really great I know it 🙂

There are so many things you could use this for, and we will be looking around for one to show you. Be creative with it too! If you have a craft to make with this, or want to show us your results after letting it soak longer, please email us at chevronchicblog@yahoo.com
Thanks and have a wonderful Sunday!
