What supplies do you need for a key shadowbox?
I found this small shadow box at Goodwill a few months ago for $0.99 and knew I’d find a good use for it sometime. This Key Shadow Box was the perfect time!
- Small shadowbox (narrow is best)
- white spray paint
- gold foil paint marker
- Scrapbook paper
- keys
- hot glue
- sharpie marker
How to update an old frame
I spray painted the frame all white and then added gold on the interior edges using a gold foil paint pen.
Next, using simple patterned polka dot scrapbook paper, I lined the back of the frame and glued the keys using hot glue.
Once everything was dry, I wrote out the associated addresses with each key.
I love how the sweet memories this easy DIY will bring to our home!
