Yesterday morning, my husband and I took a walk in a local nature preserve.

(You can see some photos here...)
While transferring the photos to my computer, I noticed
how much THIS one reminded me of an amateur painting I'd bought a long time ago
(probably at a thrift store).
I took it out of the small, nondescript brown frame it was in
and painted the frame black.
It fit beautifully into another frame I had on hand - again purchased
either at a thrift store or garage sale.
By the time I returned home this afternoon from a pleasant lunch and visit with a friend,
the inner frame was dry and the whole deal ready to be assembled.
Ta Dah!
What a difference framing makes..
Yes, framing can make a world of difference and you did great with what you had. That painting makes me want to take a walk down the woodsy path.

Oh my goodness, what a great idea, Rebecca. Good for you! Susan
ReplyDeleteFrames are important, yours turned out beautifully. The nature scene from your walk does indeed look like the painting.
ReplyDeleteI like the painting ad the framing really sets it off nicely.
