Cute Picture Frame on a College Budget

I found this bad boy at a yard sale. I've been looking for these decorative frames for a while now but they're all just so darn expensive. 

This one was a stand-up frame but it was easy enough to take the back off. 

When I spray paint things I personally prefer to use Krylon. 
I've always found it to be the best quality. 

This might seem kinda obvious in text, but you'd be surprised how many people don't think of this while using spray paint:
GET INDOOR PAINT. Spray paint does come in "outdoor" and the chemicals are different because one has to withstand the weather (read: the chemicals are more intense).

I left the frame outside to dry for about 30 minutes. Then I let it sit on the table for another 45 just to be safe. 

I had to spray a second coat on because the plastic didn't hold the paint well. If I hadn't been lazy, I would have sanded the surface to rough it up a bit so the paint would hold better.


Anyway. 
Here it is, all pretty in my room.
