A {New} Wedding Veil Display

 Yesterday I hinted about a project Rob and I have been working on all week. 

And it's finally finished!

Several months ago I framed my wedding veil like this:

And then a few weeks ago my two year old son knocked it over and broke the frame in half. 

So this week my husband and I worked on reframing my veil, but this time we actually built the frame ourselves. 

And here it is- my new and hugely improved wedding veil display!

I love this one so much; even more than the first one!

I can't help noticing in these pictures how much better the room looks with the ottoman and the newly re-covered couch too!

Here's an old view from the dining room:

And here's the new frame from the dining room:

Here's an up-close comparison:

My favorite part about the new display is how the grey fabric background looks with the grey on the ottoman fabric:

They are so perfect together!

I can't wait to give all the details on how we built the frame and laid everything out! I'll be back with that next week! 

*Update- the how-to post is done! Go here to see how Rob and I made this!
