If you do not want to make your own frame, you can buy unfinished wood frames from your local big box craft store. I used Valspar Satin Antique White paint to paint my project. I suggest 2-3 coats.

Instructions

Attach chicken wire to the back of the frame either using finishing nails or a staple gun.
Trim off excess wire, and hammer the edges into the frame (so it doesn't scrape your wall).
Using Antique White paint, paint the frame and chicken wire. Paint the clothespins as well.
paint the clothespins as well
While the paint is drying, die cut the gold foil using a butterfly die. If you want texture to the butterfly, run through a diecut machine using an embossing folder or texture plate.
Adhere the gold butterfly to the clothes pin, using a Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Dodz small.
Hang the frame.
Add jewelry, photos, and quotes to the frame.
