A Pinch of Joy

Eat Healthy, Do it Yourself, Live Well, Have Fun.

Quick Change Art

Dark Picture Frame taped for painting

Frame too dark for the space – a windowless bathroom.

 

Paint on a plate with brush and paint bottle

The solution to the problem!

Two coats of silver paint later.

 

Picture of autumn trees on the wall

A much needed pop of color framed in silver brings light to a dark space and coordinates with the silver accessories elsewhere in the room!

    I love to change the look of old frames. It’s great to freshen things up now and then. You did a beautiful job!!! So glad you shared the story about “the other side” of your childhood home. I laughed out loud. Oh, well, I think the man probably enjoyed it nonetheless…and who knows, maybe he figured it out after the fact. 😉

    take care,
