While I was visiting a friend recently, she asked me to help her tackle the BIG job of hanging favorite photos. I LOVE arranging a photo wall - call me crazy but I really love mixing the new photos with other pictures and fun vintage drawings/botanicals/silhouettes/mounted letters etc...
My friend had purchased these wonderful old window frames at a flea market. They were originally installed in a church. I love the patina and color of the frames and knew that black and white photos hung within the larger vintage frames would look wonderful in her new "bonus room".
What do you think?
So, the moral of the story is, don't pass up those larger window frames you see while at flea markets and antiques stores, they really add some vintage fun to new black and white photography!
On another note, I received my last issue of Country Home magazine this weekend. I will miss that old friend.

You have friends with the best taste! I would never pass up frames like that! I have been wanting to do something similar for a long time, but I have never seen 3 of something like that. So unique and I think it looks amazing.
ReplyDeletep.s. I am going to feature your blog in my "birds of a feather" post coming up today or tomorrow.... maybe that will "bring some friends over".
