Framed.....


I have a love affair with frames. All shapes, sizes, colors, textures, age, etc. I LOVE them! I could buy up frames everyday but don't. tee hee he. It's probably why I love buying old wooden windows too. It's a frame right???


I hit the jackpot at a yard sale - was it this past summer or the summer before??? can't remember now. Anyway, I bought a bunch of old but cool frames that I could just see the potential in. I've always wanted to create a collage on a wall of empty frames......but have yet to do it.........................they are still sitting in the garage.


My sister though however has created a beautiful arrangement in her home so I just had to share it with you! She placed all of her frames inside one large one. And if you can't find one big enough...... make it, of course!!! Decorative molding would do the trick and be a quick and easy project to complete.













Doesn't it look GREAT? I love the combination of all the textures, colors and how the different shapes play off each other and compliment one other. It's very easy on the eye yet fun too.
So anyone running off to create one of your own? Be sure to post and share on your blog and let me know if you do!!
Enjoy the weekend.....

I love this, I have even seen an arrangement where they randomly added in the letters to spell out home in with the frames.

Thanks for posting!
