I picked up the frame at Michael's in February - for a Valentine's idea that I had, if memory serves me correctly. It came unpainted but hooked together with the two wooden pieces and red ribbon. It sat on the shelf waiting for non-gooky paint (technical term) to be purchased. I finally got some paint last Monday, and went about painting the wings and red heart. I let that sit a couple of days and did the black frame and monkey details in 3 sittings - probably 5-15 minutes in each sitting. From there, I just found one of my favorite Frida paintings on the innerwebs and printed off a copy, cut and framed. I took the monkey from her shoulder and put it in the red heart on top.
Congratulations on a project well done and completed!
