Using A Vintage Tennis Racket To Create A Mixed Media Memory Craft Project

Did You Know An Old Tennis Racket Can Become A Work Of Art?

Retro Hang-Up Idea

Here is a wonderful idea for displaying your favorite
souvenir and photographs. Create a three dimensional collage or mixed media project using a vintage tennis racket as a support.

This clever idea was spotted at The Harwinton Antique Show You can use vintage images, old greeting cards, vintage medals, ribbons, ephemera, school pins, jewelry etc.

What a terrific idea for a gift for a sports collector of for father's Day!
