i picked up a bunch and decided to give them a quick makeover by spray painting them white {i used krylon - gloss white -- it was a bottle leftover from this wishing tree i made for a friend's babyshower}.
i really like how they turned out. i have a couple more drying on my balcony right now. the two square ones i really love, but for the life of me i couldn't figure out how to undo the back so i decided not to use them.
i may have to look for more frames depending on what kind of collage look i eventually want. but i think this process is going just fine. kinda excited! wall collage, here i come!
and as always, i'm inspired by wendy over at young heart and her thrifted tuesdays.
xoxo,
jane

Such a great find! I'm wanting to create a gallery wall myself, but didn't think to paint thrifted frames. Such a clever idea! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is a wonderful idea! Buy a bunch of inexpensive mis matching frames and spray them all white. And thanks for letting us know what spray paint you used.
