For the love of Frames

I love frames. I cannot resist a pretty frame and I love to transform them. All the frames in my house get the same transformation and even though I claim to not like things too matchy matchy, I do love that they all coordinate so well.


I love this look of hanging several different sizes of frames together. The outside frame with the roses is my favorite of all time.

I decided to hang my favorite Halloween picture for awhile. This was 2000, and Janae was Cruella Deville...she didn't want to be Cruella because Cruella is mean. :) All the puppies are her siblings--both her Snyder and Brown siblings. I think it is the cutest halloween ever!


This is my little sitting area where these frames hang..and yes, I have big plans for that lampshade... I have been procrastinating about that one for about a year now!


You may recognise my favorite frame from my Niece's wedding...


Another friend of mine asked to borrow it to take photos of her daughter and her horse. I hope she does..that would make awesome pictures!

I like frames just sitting on the mantle and looking pretty!



One of my favorite walls in the house is above the livingroom couch.


If you want to see how I transform them you can find that post here.


Well, I have been thinking about decorating for Fall--ugh, not my favorite season. I am loving seeing all the beautiful white fabric pumpkins I am seeing in blogland though!

Thanks for visiting!

    What a great picture from that Halloween and I love the frames, Sandy! I always keep my eye out for pretty frames. I don't always keep them but I can't resist a frame with some pretty detailing.

    I had forgotten about the Halloween picture...it is adorable!! Now that Janae' is 24 & the others are all teenagers, it is fun to see them when they were so young.

    Hi! Visiting from What's It Wednesday! I love your frames. I am a frame collector too...I have them all over the house and walls. I just bought 3 similar vintage frames and thought to put them inside each other. It is gorgeous....thanks for the great decorating idea! Following!

    Gorgeous!

    Hi Sandy,
    I showed your Halloween picture to my daughter, and she thought it was so cute.
    Your framing idea is so creative and like you I have a big thing for frames, layering, stacking and hanging :)

    Love all you have inspired over here, your whites mixed with the rich tone of darker pieces gives your room interest, I too mix the darker tones with as much pale as I can create :)

    Have a beautiful fall, looking forward to all the holiday decor you will be posting.

    Xx

    Well, let me just say, you do a frame justice, that's for sure! I love the 3 frames inside each other. I've never seen that done, and what a great idea!
