I finished stitching and beading
Latte by Mill Hill. Since I couldn't frame the sister piece,
Cappuccino, I decided to cut this one the same and put them together on a tray. I took a tray that I bought at either Micheal's or AC Moore, painted it, traced the where the pieces would go, individually glued real coffee beans in the blank space, spray glazed 3 good coats then affixed the pieces to the tray. I added a hang bar to the back and it is now hanging in my kitchen.
I also framed some previous finishes. The one on the right was a dollar store frame. I put an antique white base coat, crackle medium, red white and blue paints then a glaze coat. The one on the right was also going to be painted but after it was sanded I decided that I liked it just like that. I sprayed a layer of glaze to seal the wood and it still had a little white paint and turned out cool.
