a couple of months ago i was cleaning out a cabinet and ran across a number of frames that were all different colors. they were relatively the same size but a different design. i was wanting to put up the kids pictures and didn't want to spend any money on the project. i ventured out into the garage, there is a wealth of supplies in there, a decorator's paradise. you should try it! i found a can of black spray paint and here is the end result. a few yards of ribbon and some fun decorator nails that i picked up when my favorite store closed, read about that tragedy here
http://thedomesticchick.blogspot.com/2008/12/my-favorite-shop.html, the project was complete.
notice that the frames are not the same size or design but the color creates unity. try it in your own home. it is a great way to save and to reuse and to make your husband happy. no money spent except for the paint that was used. did i mention that the paint that was used for the frames was intended for use on a car project. oops :O)
do you have some old frames lying around for a project like this?
ps...you don't have to have pictures to fill the frames. make a collage on the wall with empty frames that are all the same color. gorgeous. trust me!
~type to you soon~

Gorgeous as always. So what room are they in? By the way, go to my blog to see what I made today.
You are inspiring me to spray paint those kid chairs we talked about last time. I found some black spray paint in a cabinet as well...
You're so talented! I need 1/4 the decorating skill you have. Is it for rent? :)
Love it! I never think to decorate with black. Good idea.
i love it. can't wait to see it in person. but first we have to at least be able to make the phone conversation!!
