jewelry holder frame

Mr.Honey's opa passed away in October, so we made a trip to Vernon for the funeral. I found a wooden frame at the thrift store, it was in good shape, my first thought was for Rocky's mom, although I didn't have exactly idea but thought I could make something for her as Birthday gift. I like to find "gift" for someone special, it is not necessary has to be some special event, as long as something makes me to thinking of somebody...
Because life is so busy with work and two young kids, the frame has been sitting in our garage for a long time, I thought about to make chalkboard frame, then the idea of jewelry holder popped in my mind, and probably even better for his mom, because she likes fashion too! I wanted to make it on my own, but after i started to paint, i was getting nervous, especially this  would be a gift to his mom, so i started to "bossy" Mr.Honey to finish my project. I didn't like the original wood color, kind of 'yellowish", we picked the "vintage white", then brush the stencil on it, Mr.Honey bought the hooks from the dollar store, he is a very handy man, he first used the rubber band to put the line on it, make sure where the hooks would be, drilled the hole after, now  you can see what  the final product looks like, I hope his mom will like it!
