that I've kept for years in a wooden crate...
that I've kept for years in a wooden crate...
all shapes, sizes and manners of finishes...my intentions were to use them for needlework or painted art.
when I redecorated my sewing studio,I needed something for the bare walls
and reached for the frames...
I grouped by size, color or wood ~never really paying much attention to details.
they looked great, but were empty still ~
so I perused another favorite collection of mine...
my antique photos and cabinet cards...
...pinned them to the wall inside the frames

viola' !!!
Instant Gallery
that I can change on a whim
with fabrics, magazine pages, photos and yes,
with fabrics, magazine pages, photos and yes,
...even needlework...
why store away your collections
when you can put them to good use?
