New Pictures
I needed two new pictures to brighten up a plain wall, so I decided to have a look around to see what I could use.
This is what I ended up with.
I took two old wooden frames, sanded them then painted them white. Then I cut two pieces of thick card the exact size of the backing.
I covered these with cheery, flowery paper napkins from Tesco - and just taped them to the card.
Then I went through my stash of pictures and cards ... yes, I know, most people have fabric stashes - mine is pictures and bits and pieces cut out of magazines, newspapers etc! Anyway I found these two lovely little postcards of old advertisements which I taped onto the napkin backing.
Polished and inserted the glass. And there we have it ... two new (cheap) pictures!
Love, Liz
In the past I've used giftwrap or old sheet music as background and then glued pretty pictures and lace onto it. You can use anything really. Would be great to go with a theme in a child's room - pirates or princesses - I've seen lovely giftwrap on these themes!

The pictures you've used look gorgeous finished off and white frames are the loveliest :-)
