Hey there! Well this week I’m finally adding some artwork to our home that I’ve been thinking about for the longest. This is proof that pretty artwork doesn’t have to be expensive. For me, it just required a little patience.
After weeks of searching I found what I needed.
1. I had to find the perfect frame. I picked this up at a thrift store for $10.00.
2. I had to find the perfect horse print. I’ve seen many photos and paintings of horses but this one just spoke to me. Ya know what I mean? I found this at Hobby Lobby. With their weekly 40% off coupon it only cost around $18.00.
3. I wanted it framed in gold and matted in white. (The frame was already gold but was kind of dated, in a faux finish.) I picked up these spray paints for less than $10.00. Gold for the frame and white for the mat board.
Before
After
Less than $40.00 for a large, matted and framed print. Not bad! These guys are getting a home above the fireplace in the living room. I’ll have more pics for you once I get it in place.
Linking up at some great linky parties this week!
