Spice up an empty wall!
A wall in my room. This tutorial is to give you some creative ideas for hanging picture frames.
For a nice mixture of frames you should shop at a thrift market. Except for pictures, you can also frame drawings, collages, souvenirs,...

Barbara M. favorited Original Picture Frames

Step 1All frames were my mum and grandma's oldies. This one was such a lovely, tacky gold cadre that I did not alter it.
I used some cute wrapping paper for the background, with colours similar to the ones in the picture. To add a little contrast, I cut a rectangular shape with contour scissors out of aluminium foil.

Step 2This frame was a ugly grey thing. I sandpapered it and put first a white coat on it and then a pale green on top.
I am the proud owner of a big collection of old photos of Hollywood stars. The envelope was the original cover (stamped: may 1928!). Background: a pale pink sheet of paper and white paper lace for more cachet.

Step 3Both cadres were polished wood, so I had a big job sandpapering them (tip: a knife or scissors are useful tools!). Then they got a few layers of white paint.
The yellow framework is painted a soft yellow (2, maybe 3 coats to cover completely). I copied a parakeet and pink flowers out of an old biology book and glued them on card board. Then I attached the figures to the frame.
The white frame already had grooves, which I coloured in with black paint and a fine brush. I painted he plastic surround of the glass a heavy pink.
