Flat Screen Tv Restyled



My flat screen television needed a much over do restyle....I was sick of looking at a big black rectangle on the wall of my now French Country dining room...here she was before...

And the after...I made a crude frame with 2 U brackets on the top, so it hangs on the top part of the tv...then I added doo dads from Hobby Lobby Clearance aisle...a little paint left over from the bathroom, and Voila'!!



Needed more distressing...now she is perfect!
